Comedy in italian cinema. The three eras of Italian laughter

 

 

The origins of the traditional Neapolitan mask Pulcinella, the Italian comedy through the comedian Totò and the chameleon that is Alberto Sordi. The new southern and sentimental comedy of Massimo Troisi and the brand new and cheeky one of Checco Zalone, the apartment block satire of Luciano De Crescenzo, the family one of Mario Monicelli and the social one of Antonio Albanese. Comedy is nothing more than magnifying everyday life, a close insight into everyday life. Wherever we turn there is a story to tell.

An episode to live and analyze by laying out all of the possible nuances, characterizing all the characters with their goals and flaws, that are at the core of each story.
