Manic-depressive comedy-drama, in the extroverted Italian style, boorish and mawkish by turn, about a blind army veteran who is assigned a travelling escort with the face and disposition of a choirboy, and then browbeats, embarrasses, and insults this polite young man for the entire length of the movie. Refreshingly unsympathetic portrait of a cripple by Vittorio Gassman, although, like the Ohio State offense under Woody Hayes, he is a little obvious about what he is trying to do, and a little obstinate about doing it. Directed by Dino Risi. (1975) — Duncan Shepherd
This movie is not currently in theaters.
