Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This film united three comedy giants from the legendary 'Cochi e Renato' and 'I Montesano' television era, essentially the Italian equivalent of throwing Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, and John Candy into one chaotic vehicle.
Sergio Corbucci normally directed violent spaghetti westerns like Django; this was his vacation from bloodshed into pure slapstick, and he reportedly found it more exhausting.
