The Incredible Army of Brancaleone (1966)
Directed by Mario Monicelli
A group of rogues steal a scroll granting its bearer the property of the land
of Aurocastro in Apulia (south of Italy). They elect a shaggy knight,
Brancaleone from Norcia, as their leader, and decide to get possession of this
supposedly wealthy land. Many adventures will occur during the journey.
There are great jokes, a lot of gags and pure nonsense. The characters are
unforgettable and the reconstitution of Middle Age is impressive. Unfortunately,
it's unknown in the USA.
