Oh, purplepines, I'm sure you meant to say "unless you have a sense of humor, it's the longest 106 min. ever," right? How can anyone--Italian, American, Antarctican, New Guinea bushman, or whatever--not like his wonderful film? Off the top of my head, I can't recall another Italian film that made me laugh so hard. The characters are funny: a boxer who can't take a punch, a young man who can't concentrate on the heist for his fondness of women, the great Marcello Mastrianni as a dimwit who's always carrying around a crying baby, and so on. And there is a very young, very lovely Claudia Cardinale among other pretty women in the cast. No, this is a delightful movie to this American--a southerner no less. Anyone halfway curious should give it a try. I smiled throughout and laughed out loud often.
