From Jacqueline to Sandrocchia“-, decides to go look for his brother-in-law Oreste, called Titino, in Angola, where the traces have been lost,” as erased by the imposing waterfalls of the duque de Bragança “.
In Will our heroes be able to find the friend who mysteriously disappeared in Africa? the elements of Italian comedy, and the ruthless criticism of the customs of our society, are dissolved in an adventure with an exotic flavor. The result is a unique film. Alberto Sordi as commendator Di Salvio is a giant who finds in Bernard Blier – the accountant Ubaldo Palmarini, voiced in the Marches by Marcello Turilli – an equally gigantic shoulder. Age, Scarpelli and Scola’s script is very generous, and the film is full of memorable situations and jokes. To see and review.
