Down at the heels Baron Ferdinando (Marcello Mastroianni) has a problem. He is fed up with his plump, fuzzy-lipped wife Rosalia (Daniela Rocca), and has eyes only for his passionate teenage cousin (Stefania Sandrelli), smoldering away just across the courtyard. He soon conceives a solution: while divorce is an embarrassing impossibility in Sicilian society, and outright murder gets you twenty to life, crimes of honor garner a three-to-seven slap on the wrist and admiration from your peers. So obviously its time to invite Rosalias old flame Carmelo (Leopoldo Trieste) in for a little fresco touchup, and who knows what else? Germis hilarious satire of Sicilian mores was a smash around the world, cementing Mastroiannis stardom by highlighting his comedy prowess after the impact of Fellinian angst, winning a Best Comedy award at the Cannes Film Festival, and an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay by Germi and the legendary writing team Age-Scarpelli (The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, Seduced and Abandoned, Mafioso). - Film Forum
