loudly as I can, "Toni deserved the friggin' Oscar!"
I've never seen a better performance, by any actor.
I doubt you can find it, but you'd like another Italian gem of world-weary wisdom called, "The Easy Life." It had some wonderful stars: Vittorio Gassman; Jean-Louis Trintignant; Catherine Spaak.

Oh, I forgot one other important star: Gassman's Lancia. What a car!
