Totò e le donne (1952)

Second viewing; first was on November 7, 1987.

English title: Toto and the Women

A henpecked husband hides in the attic at night to read mystery novels in peace. He remembers all the tribulations he has gone through because of women. His daughter is getting engaged, and he witnesses his future son-in-law go through some tribulations of his own.

A fine and funny analysis of courtship and marriage from the vantage point of males, with a brief sequence taking the woman's view.

Rating: 62 (down from 70)
