Italian TV comic Antonio Albanese spring boarded into features directing himself in this version of the STREET OF CHANCE plot where he vanishes from the life of his pregnant wife, the appealing red headed Valeria Milillo, only to re-appear holding the jar of mushrooms he went out to find five years ago.
The film is a succession of routines which build to a pay off that never arrives or proves to be feeble. Best segment is a spoof of avant garde music to which Nicola Piovani, the only name in the credits familiar outside Italy, must have contributed.
Polished Milanese production. Albanese would later work with directors like Woody Allen and Gianni Amelio.
