No, his
english isn't so good, but he can improvise well. Witness such in
Down By Law. Ahhh...his other movies include
Night On Earth (well, one fifth of it at least),
Johnny Stecchino (Johnny Toothpick), and
The Monster (Il Mostro). A few other things,
Nicoletta Braschi is always the
female lead in his movies (at least his Italian ones). His latest movie is
Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar, which hasn't found a theatrical
distributor in the US yet, and probably will go to video sometime soon. His current project is a new adaptation of
Pinocchio. The only other movies of his that have shown up in the states was
Son of the Pink Panther, which
MGM recently decided to salvage after a lot of people wanted to
forget it, and
Seeking Asylum, a
1979 Italian drama that shows very little of his
insane comic side.
Other than those, the rest of his work hasn't really seen the light of day on American shores. Fellini's final movie The Voice of the Moon, The Little Devil (with Walter Matthau as a priest!), Nothing Left To Do But Cry (co-written by and co-starring the late Massimo Troisi from Il Postino), You Upset Me (his directorial debut and the first movie he made with Braschi), and Berlinguer ti voglio bene (his acting debut), among others, aren't even available on video or otherwise in the US. Maybe after he wins another Oscar...
