Everything in this movie is right. Billy Wilder couldn't have made it better. Humour, drama, queer fun, action, relentless rhythm, and the duo De Niro - Hoffmann is so... I am at loss for words...so I'm going to watch these two do their number all over again after this first screening. Now that I'm supposed to write more words, I'll just fill up saying that I consider It's an underestimated movie.

A visual delight. Many references to Italian paintings. Horses of Ucello, rocks and coastline from Trecento masters, cities in Fra Angelico style, a Town square refers to Chirico... The story is wonderfully told too. Total pleasure.

No script no dialogues bad acting and photography.
