Really great comedy, the humor that developed between the characters, especially Jack and Zack and the way they "handled" Roberto's slightly irritating style with a good mood, felt more real than in any other comedy I have ever seen.

Its truly amazing feeling to watch such an old movie in cinema - it gives you extra emotions.
I loved the film so much! It's so delicate, funny, musical.
R. Benigni made me laugh all the time.
Tom Waits was extraordinary and crazy so much.
To sum up: one of the greatest comedies i've ever seen.
