    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Actor/director Carlo Verdone recalls that, much to his astonishment, he was contacted by the already legendary Sergio Leone. Leone invited him to his mansion and, when first meeting Verdone, told him: "Io devo ancora capì perché me fai ride" ("I still don't get why I find you funny"). Leone eventually helped Verdone produce the movie.
