Dino Risi’s IL SORPASSO Spine #707
(1962, 105 min)
This ultimate Italian road comedy stars the unlikely pair of Vittorio Gassman and Jean-Louis Trintignant as, respectively, a waggish, freewheeling bachelor and the straitlaced law student he takes on a madcap trip from Rome to Tuscany. An unpredictable journey that careers from slapstick to tragedy, this film is a wildly entertaining commentary on the pleasures and consequences of the good life. A holy grail of commedia all’italiana, so fresh and exciting that one can easily see why it has long been adored in Italy.
In Italian with English subtitles
