I once walked out of a picture, for Ermanno Olmi's Il mestiere delle armi (The Profession of Arms). I was not ready for what I later discovered was a masterpiece about the last days of Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere. If you are interested in the life of the most famous " Capitano di Ventura " of the Renaissance, I recommend the magisterial biography of Giovanni Dalle Bande Nere written by Cesare Marchi.
