Days of Fire (Italian: Gangsters '70) is a 1968 Italian crime-thriller film written and directed by Mino Guerrini.
After being released from prison, elderly Destil plans a heist to secure a peaceful retirement. He forms a gang and attempts to steal a briefcase full of diamonds, but another group of criminals catches onto his plan.
Days of Fire was written by Fernando Di Leo under the title Elegia in un cimitero d'asfalto o Il sol nero (lit. 'Elegy in an Asphalt Cemetery or Black Sun)'.
Days of Fire was distributed theatrically in Italy by I.N.D.I.E.F. on 30 April 1968. The film grossed a total of 83,977,000 Italian lire domestically. Italian film historian and critic Roberto Curti stated that the movie was "unnoticed before critics and audiences alike". Curti stated the film was not re-discovered until the late 1990s.
The film has been released as Gangsters '70 and Days of Fire. It was released in Canada on VHS by the UVI label in Italian.
