Trivia:
The actor portraying Moses (in the Biblical epic being filmed by De Sica in the desert) has a hairstyle modeled on Michaelangelo's renowned sculpture, "Moses"; horns are sculpted into the actor's hair, mimicking the horns in Michaelangelo's statue (placed there due to a mistranslation of the Bible, in which the Hebrew word for "rays" was misread as 'horns'). moreGoofs:
Continuity: In the bedroom scene between Romantica and Powell, the woman runs her hands through the veteran actor's hair, revealing hair die which she rubs on her face. Seconds later, the marks on her face are still there but her hands are clean. moreQuotes:
Aldo Vanucci: Because I am a small crook, I go to prison. It's only the big crooks that go free. Is that justice? moreSoundtrack:

Peter Sellers...thats all one needs to say! His star turn in this role is so infectious don't be surprised if there are moments when you break out into spontaneous laughter. Di Sica (yes, the Bicycle Thief director) relies less on Sellers than Blake Edwards ever did (Edwards's comedies usually zero in on one star to carry the feature, resulting in too much of a good thing. The Party, 10 and Skin Deep come to mind.) Victor Mature is equally hysterical in the Hollywood star role, self-parodying his own image. Kudos to Martin Balsam as the protective manager. You can't go wrong with Akim Tamiroff as the bad guy. About the only thing annoying about this picture is Britt Ekland when she speaks...because she ain't half bad to look at. Burt Bacharach's score is energetic and exciting, fitting in with the Italian backdrop and less "groovy '60s" than What's New Pussycat and Casino Royale. This early Neil Simon (!) romp is almost as much fun as "Murder By Death" and certainly less pretentious than any of his "Goodbye Girl" type- stuff. Look for him as the analyst at the beginning and end of the film...and look for Di Sica as himself. Lots of fun, don't miss it.
