Nirvana in The Gladiator
Nirvana was one of several bands whose music had been deemed counterrevolutionary to Marxist-Leninist-Stalinsim, and so their albums could not be purchased legally in most countries. Annarita Crosetti and Gianfranco Mazzilli found several Nirvana recordings at a record store in San Marino along with other counterrevolutionary musicians of the previous century. Gianfranco suggested that they should buy some, but Annarita vetoed that idea, convinced that Eduardo Caruso's entry into the Triple Six had probably attracted too much attention.
