About 1000 km per minute!
Guido Renzi and his lawyer friend chase a beautiful girl to return a purse that he lost and after a long drive in the car reach the laboratory of an improvised astrophysicist - the girl's father - who, together with another scientist, is about to take off in the direction of Mars aboard a missile.
Directed by Mario Mattoli, 1000 km per minute! leans on a strong ensemble — Nino Besozzi, Antonio Gandusio, Mario Ersanilli — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1939.
