Mrs. Cannon Gets Warm

This is a wonderfully boisterous slapstick which, fairly typically for the Italian variety is very rough house, but still manages to excel the usual standards of the genre by a nicely modulated pace of excess: it starts out with a rather small man coming to visit a rather large woman -- played in drag by a large man -- who moves pianos rather than walking around them, and gradually ups the ante, first with a large fan which she can wave with sufficient force to blow down crowds and then a very large hat.

My Name Is Tanino

During a sun-soaked Sicilian summer, aimless filmmaking undergrad and back-seat radical Tanino has a fling with Sally, a dreamy American tourist from an upper background. When summer ends, Sally flies back home, without ever reaching out. Clueless, a smitten Tanino decides to pay her a surprise visit under the pretense of returning a camera she left behind. But when he gets there, he quickly realizes the reality of America—and his relationship with Sally's—is far from the idealized version his small-town boy imagination conjured.
