This is an offbeat & brilliant comedy. It's fun to watch without having to think too much.
My guess is that they wanted to get a load of really funny gags into one movie - & they figured out how to do it with subtlety, actually making the plot more sophisticated.
All parts are played perfectly, and the 'types' are much better than stereotypical without being over the top.
If some people didn't like it, that's on them - no doubt they were looking for some vanilla comedy weak as milky toast. Most folks might just have been confused.
It belongs on the shelf with classic wedding comedies. This is one I'd love to own!

this is a damn good film. true, the plotting is a little clunky, but then we are all so much more sophisticated now than we were back in 1992.
i saw it at a film market, and fell in love with victoria abril... the acting i think was superb, and the plot is something that has not been adequately treated in any film, so i don't complain that this one could be better. hell, most films could have been better.
i only wish that someone would get on the ball and make these films available for download... i would pay to own it... and that's good enough for me.

IMDb should write into their software one little button that says, "If the studio would sell this film, I would BUY IT!" Then, if enough people signed up to buy a film, the studios could produce copies and sell them - or even sell them digitally online.
This excellent period film about the early traveling theatrical troupes of the Renaissance has not been available since its release, and I have been waiting for them to come out with a purchase copy. And it even stars the supreme actor Massimo Troisi, who was better in this than in Il Postino. Now is the time, since the studios can exploit the digital revolution by not having to produce and ship disks.
This is a moneymaker, folks! And with Facebuchenwald and other social networking sites, the number of people wanting to buy might grow exponentially.
So why doesn't IMDb do this?????
