In my opinion, the greatest of all was Totò. Probably you never heard of him,, so if you ever have the chance to watch a movie of his (e.g., "Big Deal", "The Band of Honest Men", "Totò, Peppino and the Wicked City Woman", "Cops and Robbers", "The Overtaxed", just to name a few, consider he made tons of movies, almost all extremely popular and successful here in Italy and just for having him playing in them), please, do it. If you like Italian actors, you'll love him for ever. I guarantee it to you!


I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)
