Mario Monicelli's classic crime comedy Big Deal on Madonna Street (I Soliti Ignoti) features Vittorio Gassman and Marcello Mastroianni as a pair of thieves who head a group of criminals in a break-in attempt. Their plan involves digging an underground tunnel from an apartment that leads to a neighboring business and drilling their way inside. In addition to each of the burglars struggling with individual personal problems, the group must reassess their plans after they find themselves not in the store, but a different room of the apartment from which they started. Big Deal on Madonna Street is a spoof of Jules Dassin's caper classic Rififi. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

| Italian neo-realism meets the Three Stooges. And that's a good thing. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. It approaches pure slapstick but always in the gritty realistic style that the Italians created. Great actors and a terrific plot. This movie contains one of the funnies and most unique car chases in the history of movie making. There is no reason for you not to watch this movie. |
