Story

How Sweet it is to Die Murdered (Quanto è bello lu murire acciso) is an Italian historical film written and directed by Ennio Lorenzini and released in 1975. The original title of the film is that of a popular song reworked by Roberto De Simone, who is considered the precursor of the Neapolitan folk revival of the 1970s. The film depicts the failed expedition organized by Carlo Pisacane in 1857 to provoke an uprising in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.
