I watched this movie almost by accident and I'm happy I did. The plot is almost textbook, but there are some good deviations that keep it fun. I laughed at a number of jokes. Many of them were executed well. The male lead was able to change characters as required with a lot of skill and ease. The age difference between the two was a little strange, but this was 1950s Italy where you were an old maid if you weren't married by 20.
