Highly Overrated But Still Good
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
This is one of Italy's favorite Toto films, and includes many of the scenes most widely reproduced in pictures and posters. When I was living in Rome in 2006, I asked a local video rental store owner for a recommendation, and this was his first choice.The scams attempted by Toto and his partner are brilliant, rivaling the best material of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby in their "On the Road to..." films.Not to be missed are the scenes of early '60's Italian girls dancing to an American Rock'n'Roll idol: priceless! The 10 rating is, of course, for people with a real appreciation of Toto and Italian culture. People who can't stand subtitles or do not appreciate foreign films in general might well laugh themselves silly anyway, but they would have to abandon their prejudice.
