Overlooked Italian comedy gem highlighting the great Ugo Tognazzi
10 October 2008
A sardonically funny look at a Lothario's nightly tiptoe through the tulips. Ugo Tognazzi, who is best known in the US for La Cage aux Folles, is a middle-aged man who decides to settle down and marries an unusual heiress. His virile prowess eventually extends to her two sisters but, when the maid catches his eye... Each sister plays an instrument, suffice it to say, the trio are collectively bewitching though not conventionally attractive. This film is curiously similar to 1987's The Witches of Eastwick. Perhaps because of the obvious story dissimilarity, the female leads in Eastwick being witches, no one has mentioned it.
