Hilfe ich bin spitz…e! (1973)

Hilfe ich bin spitz…e!: Directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile. With Adriano Celentano, Claudia Mori, Toni Ucci, Maria Grazia Spina. Rome, 1800. Rugantino is a fool in love that rages eternal, though he is very unlucky in love stories and fruitful occasions.

“I assumed this was one of the lesser known Celentano movies. While it has been a while (apart from another movie on Netflix recently), since I saw some of his movies, I remember him being the funny guy – a character full of self esteam – which may be closer to his real persona than this one is. But since I have not read up on him or have never seen a documentary on him (there surely must be one at least, right?), I can only guess.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHere is more than vulnurable and he really puts himself out there. He may be cocky but he also gets a lot coming his way. He is being manhandled, ridiculed and many more things. He is after all not royalty (like others here) … and then the movie also has other themes that it explores … things that will coincide with his story and his path … which may not be a good thing for him to happen … so maybe you can see the ending coming (even though one may wonder if mixing in humor with a very serious matter of life and death might not be the best idea … one might think that one would be quiet, when ones life depends on it … but youu0026#39;ll see what I mean if you decide to watch this.”
