'''''Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man''''' (original name ''Uomini si nasce poliziotti si muore'') is a 1976 Italian crime movie directed by Ruggero Deodato. Two Italian police officers Alfredo ([[Marc Porel]]) and Antonio ([[Ray Lovelock]]) are members of a "special squad" ("death squad" in fact). They are waging a war against criminals using blood-and-dirty methods. It's worth noting that the literally translation of the title is "Men are born, cops dies" which has different sense with the IMDb version of the title.
