Il cilindro(1978)
Il cilindro Synopsis
The comedy, centered on five characters (Rita, Rodolfo, Agostino, Bettina, and Don Attilio - "o viecchio pazzo"-), has as background the Italy of the 60s between the economic boom and the perennial unemployment crisis. The cylinder, well explained by "Agostino-Eduardo" in the comedy, is a representation of power, designed to intimidate the ignorant for its only evocative "power". It can also be seen as a sort of "Pirandellian mask", where the character of Augustine wears it to defend himself and represent something that he is not.
Il cilindro (1978) is a comedy film directed by Eduardo De Filippo, released on January 1, 1978 with a runtime of 1h 32m. It stars Eduardo De Filippo, Monica Vitti, Luca De Filippo and Pupella Maggio.
