Sketch film as only the Italians knew how to do. In the 60's they did a lot, some very successful, others less successful. This is somewhere in the middle, some episodes are very boring. The successful ones are the one on the beach when Walter Chiari is an egg seller, the very short one in the train compartment, also with Walter Chiari when he throws the dwarf on the window and the parody "Goldfinger", with the same Walter Chiari as James Bond and Raimondo Vianello in the role played in the original by Gert Fröbe. The music performed by Rita Pavone, Gianni Morandi, Adriano Celentano, Jimmy Fontana, gives value to the film, the songs are very beautiful, even today. Paolo Panelli, an unknown actor, is very good in a few episodes. All in all, a comedy worth seeing. Steno was an excellent comedy director, having under his belt many other films, even better than this one.
