Review

Mastroianni is pure magic in this frantic satire on love and marriage -- the first, and best, of the Italian sex comedies of the 1960s. Mastroianni plays an aging nobleman who, in order to marry his vivacious teenage cousin, must first get rid of his wife -- a difficult task in a no-divorce country. His convoluted plan soon involves him acting as a jealous husband who, on finding his wife in bed with another man, kills her off in a fit of passion -- the only problem is finding the "other man." A delightful comedy that was nominated for three Academy Awards and won for Best Original Screenplay. (Italian with English subtitles)
