| Trivia | Valeria Moriconi (Pupella) stated in an interview that the spaghetti scene was improvised as they had only rehearsed approaching the spaghetti and no more. Furthermore, Toto inadvertently put into his pocket a "spiral" (a hot smoking device placed in the food to make it look piping hot) and the scene had to be stopped as his jacket caught fire.
