    • Trivia
      The original title is taken from a gag of the De Rege brothers, a couple of Italian stage actors active between the 1920s and the 1940s. Most of the movie gags are indeed typical of the avanspettacolo, the theatrical genre of the De Rege brothers.

    Banfi's top !!!

    Just saw it again after years, I laughed 'til tears !!! Brilliant, Luciano Salce is a great director, Lino Banfi has never been so funny...the story is simple but this is a MUST !!! The coffe scene, Dr.Thomas and so on are things that just make all laugh whenever you start remembering, and most of the quotes are now common use in Italian language. I'm going to have a party with my friends, of course this and "L'allenatore nel pallone"(another great Banfi movie) are the main course !!!

    Ciao

    P.S. Of course you should be 30 or above to lnow and appreciate it, every generation has their myths...
