New 4K Restoration! Cleveland premiere!
Italy | 1961 | Dino Risi
Italian funnyman Alberto Sordi (The White Sheik, Mafioso) stars in this 62-year-old comedy that wasn’t released in the U.S. until just this year! Sordi plays an idealistic resistance fighter who turns left-wing journalist and novelist after WWII. But because he can’t stomach the values and money-grubbing in postwar Italy, his fortunes suffer. “Critic’s Pick…A stellar specimen of commedia all’italiana by a true maestro of the form.” –A.O. Scott, NY Times. “Italian social realism at its finest, funniest, and most heartbreaking.” –David Hudson. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. DCP. 119 min.
