1983 · 88 min · ★ 5.5 · Comedy

It is the story of the brilliant football player Cotechiño, hired by the Napoli team as a centre-forward. Too bad that his professional career will be strongly influenced by the frequent absence of his fiancée, for which he feels an inexplicable, almost obsessive jealousy. That's why he hires a plumber very similar to him to keep an eye on his beloved, but that won't be enough when Cotechiño is kidnapped.

Paris, My Love

Parigi O Cara is probably the most camp in the history of Italian cinema, certainly a favourite with the queer community who quote its lines by heart. Unique as it's the only film where Franca Valeri (now 90) is the unquestioned star, in the role of Delia, a snobbish, stingy prostitute who is moving to Paris looking for greener and more lucrative pastures. An anti-neorealist, amoral, almost abstract comedy, which anticipates Almodóvar, a ferocious, though gentle, non-moralistic portrayal of the 60's boom and its broken dreams. The dialogue between Delia and her brother (played by Fiorenzo Fiorentini), when he does (or does not) tell her he is a homosexual, is memorable, a primordial coming-out, a masterpiece of allusions. But what makes it one of the first examples of a film with a "gay point of view" is the approach: perceptive, non-conformist, caustically witty. A film ahead of its times, still unbeaten.
