Ice Kargo French Resturant

Capriccio all'italiana

1967, Mauro Bolognini, Mario Monicelli, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Steno, Pino Zac, Franco Rossi, Toto.

episodic film that I'm going to list with very brief synopsis:


The nurse (Mario Monicelli)
A German nanny (Silvana Mangano) in Italy, scandalized by the fact that children read comics like Diabolik, Kriminal Satanik and will read them the story of Tom Thumb. Of ogres, wolves and various monsters, the whole bed with a terrifying look, the children began to cry desperate!


Creature from the Sunday (Steno)
A wealthy older man and a traditionalist (Toto) hates the modern hippies, while not forgetting the graces of a youngster. Implement a plan to kidnap and Diabolik worthy of punishment, then sentenced without being too much by the investigator.


Why? (Mauro Bolognini)
A traffic jam on a sports car and a couple with her hysterical urging fellow "Bausch" not to be lead by the nose by another vehicle, to overcome the tail and make them do maneuvers azzardate, fino a provocare un litigio degno della cronaca dei giornali.


Che cosa sono le nuvole? (Pier Paolo Pasolini)
E' l'episodio che da solo vale l'intera visione del film, poetico e importante, ne parlo poi sotto.


Viaggio di lavoro (Pino Zac, Franco Rossi)
Presa in giro dei viaggi della regina d'Inghilterra in Africa, dove commette gaffe imperdonabili facendo discorsi in un paese scambiandolo per un altro e causando imbarazzi alla politica internazionale. Curioso perché mischia cartoni con persone.


The jealous (Mauro Bolognini)
mad jealousy of a woman (Ira Furstenberg) to her husband (Walter Chiari). There is no solution dialectic taking with her everything that he systematically used to stir suspicions. Paroxysmal situation, I know something in your personal life.


I'm going to talk about "What are clouds?" Pier Paolo Pasolini. First
a curiosity: this episode is the last film in which film is Toto. Seen as ends and speaking, I must say it was a worthy and moving farewell of the greatest Italian genius of laughter (and not just one) of all time.
It 's a short and narrow version of Shakespeare's Othello made by the puppet play. In fact all the actors (Franco Franchi, Ciccio Ingrassia, Ninetto Davoli, Laura Betti, the same Totò ...) play just the puppets that represent the characters of the drama. It is not a random one of the puppets, because characters in the drama, on stage play their part as expected, behind the scenes are told about it, considering the events themselves. Yet the public, very popular, we will not tolerate accalorerà to each other and the intrigues of the act of Otello and Iago to Desdemona. The finish, after a context that mixes reality and fiction, will be un'amara riflessione sulla morte, con le marionette che solo in discarica potranno apprezzare la bellezza del cielo.

Film di satira sociale, con episodi dal valore altalenante, ognuno a modo suo divertente, mai noiosi.
Da Olimpo invece il pezzo di Pasolini.
