La moglie in bianco... l'amante al pepe

Sometimes, a comedy relies on ethnic flavour - more so than the fact that the story doesn't have enough going for it to do well on its own. This could be seen with this particular film. La moglie in bianco is that kind of a movie. Lino Banfi is in overdrive here with screaming and gesticulating.

This is my first Michele Massimo Tarantini movie. If you saw Sergio Martino's work with Banfi and liked it, chances are you might be slightly disappointed with this one. But, the female lead, Pamela Prati, is irresistible and all around gorgeous especially without her clothes, which she is most of the movie.

Overall, the film is quite funny, in theory, although it wants to secure the laughs by laughing in your ear and trying to choke you for good measure.
