A trio of Italian men in their 30s refuses to grow up in this uneven drama. They miss the excitement of the 1960s and drift aimlessly through life with little ambition. Sergio (Massimo Ciavaro) is an unwed father whose baby is more responsible than his father. Enzo (Silvio Vanucci) returns after ten years in Brazil with his shrewish wife (Marina Suma). Pietro (Enzo Decaro) is a drug-addicted prostitute who completes the trio of those who will never grow up. A chance meeting finds the three crashing a party at the home of Enzo's parents. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Perhaps taking a cue from the popular 1970s Brit television comedy "Are You Being Served?," this Italian department store comedy is a series of skits involving customers and store personnel from several departments. In one skit, Elena (Laura Antonelli) and her husband the personnel director, are certain that an inept salesman in the bathroom fixtures department is actually the son of the store's owner. They launch into a campaign to woo him over without bothering to check up on his credentials. In another skit, the famous Italian actress Ornella Muti, playing herself, walks into one of the men's departments and sends a salesclerk into near heart failure. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Geared to a teen and pre-teen audience, this juvenile romance is set in the last year of high school and involves the attraction between a beautiful newcomer (Isabella Ferrari) to the school, and an introverted, hard-working young student (Massimo Ciavarro), and between a plain woman (Orsetta Gregoretti) infatuated with the school's womanizer (Carlo Mucari), and the class joker (Mauro Di Francesco). Their stories play out as expected, against a backdrop of current hit songs and with a lot of frenetic acting. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
