Underrated..One of the best Peter Sellers movie ever.

Peter Sellers's performance is better than excellent in this film, i'm wondering how can an englishman can behave like an italian (in this movie), an hindu(The Party) or a french (Pink Panther), without making any mistake. If you don't already know him english, you cannot guess it.

So, Vittorio De Sica's aim is to make fun of Neo-realistic movies and especially Federico Fellini which is one the most important neo-realistic directors of the period. We can expose it by mentioning here the name of Federico Fabrizi, whom directing the film "Gold of Cairo" in After the Fox as Aldo Vanucci. The other enjoying thing about fun making of De Sica, is to put to the end of the movie a critic who evaluated Federico fabrizi's film as a masterpiece.

score 10/10
