Culo e camica is an idiomatic Italian phrase that loosely translates to "bum and shirt" but means two friends that are tight, or close as a tucked in shirt.
The movie is basically two unrelated comedic features: the first one features the travails of a man who stutters and tries to woo a woman he wants to date.
The second features the wonderful Renato Pozetto as a gay man who lives with a partner, but finds himself falling for a woman, and not knowing how to tell his partner, who is prone to melodrama. Did I mention this is a comedy? And a very winning and sexy one at that.
A hard to find film, I believe in the US, I purchased the PAL version in Italy and transfered it to US standards. There are no English subtitles.
