About Io tigro, tu tigri, egli tigra
Three short stories full of absurd Italian humor. Episode 1: Oddjobs man Elia is hired to be a waiter and soon finds himself caught up in a plot to knock off his mistress (in more ways than one). Episode 2: Della is convinced that aliens are on their way to consume the world and before long ends up a guinea pig on a spaceship from the planet Phobos. Episode 3: Roberto becomes a Bersaglieri in the Italian army and nearly causes a war between Italy and Switzerland over a packet of cigarettes.
Directed by Giorgio Capitani, Renato Pozzetto, Io tigro, tu tigri, egli tigra leans on a strong ensemble — Renato Pozzetto, Cochi Ponzoni, Angela Luce — 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 1978.
