Afternoon Film: Mafioso

“In “Mafioso,” Alberto Lattuada’s incomparable, half-forgotten 1962 crime comedy-travelogue (and then some), the divisions between northern and southern Italy are drawn in vivid, almost cartoonish relief. The hero, played by the great Italian comic actor Alberto Sordi — an irrepressible mixture of clown, blowhard and matinee idol — scrambles to reconcile the contradictions between his life in Milan and his Sicilian roots, an identity crisis that is clearly not his alone.” _The New York Times
