Ladri di saponette (1989)
The film is an homage, not a spoof.

The Bicycle thief was a sad and moving story. Saying I enjoyed it would be contradictory to the feeling the viewer is left with at the end. I can, however, state that I enjoyed The Icicle Thief.
You have to pay attention to what is being said at the start of the film to understand the Directors intent to honor the original, not to "spoof" it.
The film uses color as well as Black and White brilliantly. I laughed quite a bit, which is more than usual for mainstream Hollywood comedies. Reason: This ain't hollywood...
Thanks.
