La mortadella (1971)
Original Title much better than the American one!
27 June 2022
I saw this movie some years ago. I enjoyed it very much, as I cold relate to the whole plot. How many of us Europeans brought something as a gift, to friends in the US only to have it confiscated by US customs. The whole idea that she would bring an expensive Mortadella ( a type of Bologna, containing lumps of Pork Fat ) This is something prized by Italians. Yes the plot is silly, but that is what the Director had intended. It is sad, that such a comedy would fail to entertain an American Audience. I remember a similar instance with the Movie Mostly Martha, Germany. The plot was very funny and entertaining. However America seemed to find it not so, and created their own version, which was a total bore!
