  I saw it decades ago in Russia... for obvious reason films like that were popular with the Soviet government.

  I still remember that depressing mood.

  being composed. It's been done, and art marches on.
  Still, there is plenty of good new music and that holds true for film, too. One must make sometimes Herculean efforts to find the best of both: that's why our music and film forums (and others) are a necessity thesedays: the sheer volume of common crap is overwhelming.

    I am looking a film at the moment that you must try to see, it is, I would bet to your liking as it is of mine: Le Matadore ( Il Mattadore )...Dino Rissi ( had you guessed? )
    Gassman is EXTRAORDINAIRE!!!! What a fun!
    Tin Steal it, in case you did not see it by now.
    What a joy!

      I am purchasing a DVD player sometime after our Christmas sales begin in January and that will make available a lot more choices to me. First off, I've got to rent "Il Sorpasso," for old time's sake, and then, thanks to your recommendation, "Il Matadore".

        I think in the meantime that ALL Dino Risi are worth to look at!

        From the brief description it doesn't sound like the opera - no music there?

          Well, there´s some music in it, of course: only that it´s not the opera, but Sardou´s play made into good cinema.

          Yes, Vitti is fine, but Gassman shines brightly in this film!
