Il gaucho

Vittorio Gassman strikes again in this tragicomic comedy, this time the liar and cocky Marco Ravicchio (Gassman) a typical Italian works as press agent of a low cinematography company on a film festival at Buenos Aires overseen of a bunch of secondary actress and crew of the movie, in fact he is bad financial conditions, there they are welcome by a Italian Cattle's tycoon Marucchelli (Amedeo Nazzari) who live at Argentina, henceforth Marucchelli is a kind of sponsor to them, among all sort of misunderstood and troubles Marco enjoys the spotlights which the festival gave to them, meanwhile he looking for his Italian old mate Stefano (Nino Manfredi) in low harbor area, they pretend each other in optimal financial matters, actually both are broken, a bitter plot with crude jokes over Italian descendants who living at Argentina, the movie has many strengths as when Marco finds a Hitler's clone working there since the end of the war as gardener, priceless moments, a slight politically incorrect nowadays for many reasons, indeed a good movie Gassman-Manfredi despite the last one has a small role, simply unmissable!!!
