About I'll Fix America and Be Right Back
An helpless Italian accountant is dispatched to the U.S. to find a black player for his company's basketball team, mistakenly recruiting a Black Power radical. The odd couple becomes friends, but America's racism keeps rearing its ugly head.
Directed by Nanni Loy, I'll Fix America and Be Right Back leans on a strong ensemble — Paolo Villaggio, Sterling St. Jacques, Alfredo Rizzo — 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 1974.
