Italian film by Dino Risi. A collection of vignettes showing men at their ordinary worst. Beautiful black and white photography. Akin to Seinfeld in the sense that the laughter comes from recognizing actions that are part of everyone's psychology, if only as a seed.

who was involved?
This light-hearted movie is not the kind that makes you roar with laughter, but it is charming and funny, and had be smiling throughout. By and large, a character study of two men thrown together for a Summer weekend—one an introvert, the other an extrovert and a seducer. The characters are terrific, and so are the various settings, from villages to bourgeois interiors and beach parties.

Big Deal on Madonna Street
(
I Soliti Ignoti)
1958 |
Italy | Laughs: 0.8 (Light-Hearted) |
imdb: 8.0

who was involved?
A motley crew of petty criminals carefully plan a burglary. The movie is still watchable—it has a lot of texture, the plot makes sense and there's no overacting. I don't think the movie will make you laugh, but if you're interested in old films you may enjoy this one for historical or cultural reasons.
