Trivia

Antonio La Trippa ( Totò ) states that "if you give three votes to me, I will give three contracts to you". Similar mechanisms were unveiled for real by a large political scandal in Italy in 1992 (Tangentopoli). Actually, several satiric aspects of this movie really happened years later in politics (including the internal frictions between parties of the same spectrum, as happens to Antonio La Trippa and Giuseppe Mollica), making the movie nowadays appear much less hyperbolic than when it was premiered.
