Il capitano Fausto Consolo: [sniffs] Do you smell that?
Giovanni Bertazzi, aka Ciccio: What, sir?
Il capitano Fausto Consolo: [sniffs] I smell females. How were they? Tell me. Tall, short? I know they were young. I know the smell of young armpits. Kiddo, what did they look like? Describe them, damn it!
Giovanni Bertazzi, aka Ciccio: I don't know. I didn't get a good look. There were two of them.
Il capitano Fausto Consolo: What good are your eyes? Do you like women? Yes or no? And if you do, can't you tell if a breast is shaped like a pear or an apple? If an ass is high or low? Do you think I suffer because I can't see the sunset or the dome of St. Peter's? Sex! Thighs, two nice ass cheeks. That's the only religion. The only political ideal. Man's true country.

-----Start rant----- I HATE substandard, big star, corporate, homogenized movies. I hated the Bird Cage, I hated Point of No Return, I hated City of Angels, I hated Shall We Dance?(US) and every other movie that simply took a decent foreign film and photocopied it with familiar names in starring roles with dumbed-down dialogue because nobody thought that YOU were smart enough to understand the original. The whole world enjoys movies from other countries, enjoys visions of life in other places represented through film except the good 'ol USA that simply puts a veneer of saccharin over anything internationally successful to create unnecessary and boring hybrids. You don't have to be an intellectual to enjoy foreign movies, you simply have to have a brain in your head. -----End rant-----
The film is delicate, and presents a wonderful array of issues related to Italian culture at the time: inadequacy in the face of a changing world, individual impotence when fronted with social and personal injustice, and of course, that strange version of love only the Italians can put on screen.
The film has had a remake, and I found it inferior in just about every way. The original is simply good film-making, not an obvious ripoff that's been pasteurized to cater to a fast-food audience. Gassman is subtle, his manners and style give the film a slow pace, sometimes too slow for my tastes, but it's forgivable if you focus on other facets of the film, like the camera work and the faithful representations of culture through the dialogue. I've never liked Pacino, he's always seemed incredibly boring and stale to me, and his idea of subtlety is whether he should speak a bit more loudly or a lot more loudly. Except for maybe the first Godfather where he was fresh and not yet ruined by the studio life.
If you don't speak Italian, you'll have to read along, but the translation I saw on the DVD was pretty good.
See this film when you've had a bad day at work and you want to see how life could be worse AND better in one fell swoop...
