Il comune senso del pudore

Sordi comments in his own way Italy pornography boom of the mid 70s, the all chain from producers (movies and magazines) tò the final consumers. Four episodes and an epilogue at the cinema Premiere of the porno chief d'ouvre. Among them the best are the first (thanks to the partnership between Sordi and Di Lorenzo as the Colonnas - from the previous Le Coppie- and especially the scenes set in the cinema reacting to hilarious fake pornos) and the last (with a formidable Philip Noiret, a vulcanic De Laurentiis in disguise, struggling to convince Dagmar Lassander/lady chatterley to shoot the most "artistic" scene with the game warden). The central episodes, although less brilliant, do not lack wit and boast excellent female leads (Florinda Bolkan and Claudia Cardinale). Not the best Sordi direction but far to be his worst. My rating: 3 out of 5 stars.
