DAY 13:
Il mio nome è Scopone e faccio sempre cappotto (1972) - Director: Juan Bosch - 3/10
Apart from featuring probably one of the most outlandish as well as synth-heavy soundtracks in the history of the genre, the flick recounts yet another tale revolving around a disputed mine and the crucible emanating from the fact that pretty much everybody wants to lay their hands on that wealth, including our stone-faced pistolero Stiffen. Albeit not nearly as funny as it is intended to be, the film boasts high-spirited Fernando Sancho who exuberantly shows off his fat ass and essays to invigorate the otherwise middling content in any way he can.
This is no masterpiece obviously and the comedy does not work all that much, but it looks like a movie more or less in virtue of its good production values and good cast; considering the latter factor though, this should have been much better and much more amusing. Nevertheless, this one is not too bad. Yeah, it’s still pretty bad, but not that bad in my view and you get to see Sancho’s ass which is a plus I guess? I must say I am rather puzzled by Bosch’s apparent fascination with Sancho’s derrière and by the number of times he is molested in the course of this film.
