Tarapia tapioca la supercazzola o scherziamo ?

Ah well now I'm having fun! Reviewing AMICI MIEI is like diving into a tub of champagne after just getting drunk, there are so many things that come back to your memory and make you smile that it would be enough to list them. But I won't do that, instead I will say something more significant for us Italians, this film (and its trilogy) is and will always be the best comedy film produced in Italy. Point! He expressed in the most true and realistic way a cross-section of the best way of experiencing friendship in the sixties/seventies, a true, sincere, inter-class friendship, I would dare say almost a brotherhood. There are truly irresistible, contagious points of irony, we would all have wanted or tried to make fun like Count Mascetti played by a splendid Ugo Tognazzi, or to pose like the prof. Sassaroli (Adolfo Celi), or why not to fall in love like the architect Melandri (Gastone Moschin), manage a bar like Perozzi (Duillio Del Prete and Renzo Montagnani) and go on "escapades" like Perozzi (Philippe Noiret). How beautiful, what a pleasure, how many memories... a cult film, an authentic inspiration for entire generations! Masterpiece by Mario Monicelli.
