I recently received this as a gift, and it is a very good movie. The humor is very funny, and that doesn't detract from the serious side of the story. The acting is great! You can sympathize with many of the characters. If you like the history of WWII, Italian culture, and comedy then you will like this movie.

This was the best Anthony Quinn movie we've ever seen. He should have won an Oscar for this one, too! Cute story, lots of action, great acting.

This film adheres very closely to the book by the same name, but dwells only briefly on the book's most unpleasant part. It is set in World War II German-occupied Italy, during the turbulent time following Mussolini's overthrow and Italy's withdrawl from the Axis alliance.
Word reaches the hillside town of Santa Vittoria that its fabulous wine reserve is to be seized by the retreating German army. The newly installed mayor, viewed as a buffoon by his wife and the saner citizens of the town, is faced with saving the wine from the Germans. He proves that not all buffoons are the same; some have much more common sense than they appear to possess. The film is a brief clash of two cultures where the apparent underdog runs circles around its supposed superior.
This film has humor, tension, love, and a dash of evil as it occurs within the backdrop of war. Anthony Quinn, who plays the mayor Bombolini, does a superb job, even if you are not an Anthony Quinn fan. The film should leave you smiling at the end.
It is well worth including in your video library.
