What a pleasant surprise. I was on vacation in Switzerland when I came across this funny little American movie. I don't know any of the actors, but boy are they funny. The lead in this movie plays a character named Paulie -- He is kind of a male chauvanist, Italian guy who is looking for a wife. When he finally meets the girl of his dreams, she tries to serve him Tomato sauce from a jar and this guy goes nuts and dumps her -- It was one of the funniest scenes I have seen in a movie in a long time. Apparently the star of the movie wrote it as well. I can't wait to see what he does next.

Great Play

I only saw this as a play and it was done very well. I believe it was produced by Ted Lange back then. Paolo and Josie played all of the characters in the play and they had great chemistry together...I'm surprised that they aren't actually married in real life by now! I think I went and saw this play three or four times (with a different date each time) and it was funnier each time I saw it. I can only imagine the movie being even better. I did always wonder what Paolo's mom, dad and sister looked like. I still like to imitate the Father Frank character to this day...He was also referred to as the neighborhood guidance counselor. Paolo's impersonation of him still sticks with me today. Paolo was a friend of mine years ago in Hollywood and its good to see that his script finally went to the big screen...I just want to know where to rent the movie.
Brilliant Italian-American Comedy
naxash7 April 2003
"The Ragu Incident" is a brilliant comedy about 33-year old shoe salesman Paulie who just refuses to grow up and still lives at his parent's place. He meets beautiful Victoria, Italian American like him and definitely his soulmate. But then he discovers that she uses "Ragu" sauce instead of making home-made sauce. He breaks up with her... all his friends tell him he made the right thing. But somehow it just doesn't feel right.... warmly recommended!
