One of the best comedies ever made. A bumbling, utterly inept group of crooks resolve upon a seemingly simple heist. They fail in spectacular fashion. The scene in which Toto demonstrates the different methods for cracking a safe is unforgettably hilarious. A tour de force of casting, including Toto, Mastroianni, Gassman and Claudia Cardinale in her first major role.As a shocked Italian media reported, "Welcome to Collinwood" is nothing more than a remake of this remarkable film. As is so often the case, the original far surpasses the remake.Strange facts#1 The actors play characters from all over Italy, yet almost none of them gets to play a character with an accent from the actor's own part of the country!#2 Can you guess which of the principal actors was, in fact, a barista in the bar where the director used to go for his coffee?
