Even though this film is very Italian and some of the comedy rather difficult it is still really enjoyable. The dialogue is rather fast and with amusing play on the words it is still great. The city of Turin the gardens, the houses and the streets are wonderful and especially the market on a Sunday towards the end. Even when it gets a bit silly there are still the three actors who are fantastic. Marcello Mastroianni is good enough although it is probably not his sort of role he loves but Jean-Louis Trintignant is great in this even though he has to play a gay couple. Trintignant's some early films really good, ...And God Created Woman (1956), Les Liaisons Dangereuses (1959) and then some of his greats, The Conformist (1970) and Three Colours: Red (1994). But really splendid in this film is Jacqueline Bisset who is so lovely and really good throughout. Her first film was as an extra in, The Knack...And How to Get it (1965) and not much bigger in Cul-De-Sac (1966) although she got some great films but probably nothing better than Bullitt (1968).
