An Average Little Man

1977

★★★★ Watched

From Cinecittà with Love – Italian Cinema Weekly Challenge 2025 | Week #20 – Directed by Mario Monicelli

Molti nemici, molto onore – ricordalo! Oh, l’ha detto un uomo che c’aveva due palle così!

First of all: happy 110th heavenly birthday, Mario Monicelli! *blows a kiss to the sky*
Second thing: Alberto Sordi not winning the Prix d’interprétation masculine at Cannes for this performance??? A scandal, I’m tellin’ ya

Monicelli as usual proves why he’s one of my absolute favorites:…

Le Bal

1983

★★★½ Watched

From Cinecittà with Love – Italian Cinema Weekly Challenge 2025 | Week #19 – Directed by Ettore Scola

If I were Juliette, I too would choose to have both Jeremy Irons and Rupert Graves
