There’s a movie on TV tonight that’s worth seeing if you plan on not taking this Sunday night too seriously.
Carlo Verdone is undoubtedly one of the pillars of Italian cinema. Some of his films, but also characters and therefore interpretations are iconic: from Mimmo to White, Red and Green to Ivano in Honeymoonswithout neglecting films of the caliber of Classmates, My sister and I And Talcum powder (HERE another film worth catching up on). However, perhaps few people know that after a brilliant start to his career, with films that have achieved incredible success.
In 1986 Verdone was directed by his brother Luca, in a cult comedy that gives no respite. In fact, we laugh out loud from the beginning, well beyond the credits. The director, in this case the leading actor, is supported by a colleague who understands a lot about comedy. Let’s talk about Renato Pozzetto. In the cast there is also a presence much loved by Verdone and not only: Sora Lella, but here they are certainly not grandmother and granddaughter. So let’s see the plot of the film tonight on TV that you absolutely must not miss.
Tonight on TV, Verdone and Pozzetto in a hilarious comedy: here’s the plot
Seven kilos in seven days, tonight on TV on Cine 34, tells the story of two doctor friends who, after a series of vicissitudes and years apart, find themselves practicing professions far from their training: one becomes a callist masseur, the other a salesman of healthcare items. They therefore decide to renovate a farmhouse owned by the wife of one of the two with the aim of transforming it into a nursing home for obese people. The slogan promises to lose seven kilos in a week, with extreme diets, gym and miraculous concoctions. However, things don’t go as expected: patients, after a diet of empty plates, rebel.
To further complicate the situation, there are bills to pay and the accusation of taking advantage of the most attractive customers in exchange for food. In the end, the two decide to change strategy and transform the farmhouse into a restaurant called To the two pigs. Alfio and Silvano see the interpretation of two giants of Italian comedy, which they are Carlo Verdone and Renato Pozzetto. A more irreverent and colorful comedy for the famous Roman director and actor, more calm, but equally clumsy and hilarious for his colleague who boasts a series of titles that have become real cults over the years. In short, if you want a light evening, full of laughter and fun moments, don’t miss this film.
