Guido Orefice is quite the amiable character with his "Buongiorno principessa".

I remember seeing this movie when it came out, I was 8 or 9 and my parents always insisted on making me watch these what I thought at the time awful foreign movies.

Out of the ridiculous number of foreign movies I saw when I was little, this movie is the one that stuck out as the best and I actually have the dvd in my dvd player right now waiting for me to convince my bf to watch it.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
