Ettore Scola. Gassman.
This film has weak parts, but also strong, in fact so strong that they belong to the best ever filmed.
Don´t miss it.
Follow Ups:
on this one (I was able to sneak some Visconti on the qeue, though). I have a local rental place that has some foreign titles from the 70's I'll have to visit. Thanks, Patrick.

You very welcome! You will see with this one who is about friendship and love, is actually wonderful.
Bad new for French wines....They are selling very badly!
Yes, French wine seems to have had its share of woes recently, esp. Burgundy. But it may be a good time to pick up some relative bargains, if you know what to look for. Latley, I've shied away from French wines unless I want something special. They are just too expensive here compared to California or even Chile or Australia. I'm sure in France it's the reverse.

Yes, if you know what you are looking for. In France they offer Bordeaux for $2 in the supermarket.
I am reluctant to buy wine from Chile or the kind as they can put almost every thing in them, which is still not allowed here. And worse they all have the same " perfect taste " every year!
No way, less and better. Or you have, as you said to watch out.
In real wine veritas.....
Last night, drinking a pleasant inexpensive Merlot (Not a Great Wine, but nice) and the label reveals - a French wine! From Languedoc - making better wines every year, it seems. And, of course, I will always gladly pay for fine wines from wherever - I just wish I could drink first-growths every night!

I was there few weeks ago and make a few " visites " and I must say that the quality is getting real better. ( the prices, helas, for some higher... ) But they get mostly real better after four or five years.
Santé!
Thanks for reminding me of this one... great movie. Two people I love dearly in one movie - what a great combo! They also worked together in the La Famiglia.And since you are on Scola - please check his next film, right after "We All Loved..." - his incredible Down and Dirty.
Just came out in the long version in France.
Down and Dirty, just passed the command, thank you for the recommendation!
