    Detective Lo Gatto

    More complex detective story than one might think even if it all ends in a farce. Not exactly a good movie but there is a lot worse.

    Despite the mess that will combienerà Commissioner Lo Gatto will be able, without having the intention, to solve the case.

    Cult movie.

    It's an hilarious movie, even after seeing it several times it still manages to entertain. An intelligent comedy that illustrates the many souls of the Italian peoples (especially in the 80s).

    • Trivia
      In the scene where dozens of tourists rush into commissioner Lo Gatto's office, officer Gridelli (Maurizio Ferrini) gives him the phone saying that it's the Bishop of Trapani. Looking at the actor's lips, it's clear that in fact he said that it was the priest of Favignana (the island where the movie is set), then modified for dubbing.
