One of the most famous the goviane plays, it's remarkably played by the cast with optimal comedic timing, especially and undoubtably by real life and on stage couple Gilberto Govi and Rina Govi, the two having great chemistry together.Probably the best of the plays which survived on video, it's one of the most memorable characters played by Govi, and seems to never age, although it turns around a society that has been way outdated.Pinecone)
Seeing it as a play is much better then the movie made from it, which still stars Govi but has serious directing faults Che Tempi (What Times!Govi takes on the legendary cheapness of Genoese people.Watching Govi and supporting player Luigi Dameri almost battling it out to see who is the cheapest out of the two is priceless.It also, however, holds a dramatic background of emigration that is not to be taken for granted.Rudder Blows)
It's the least funny out of the surviving goviane plays, however, this is not to be held against it, because as never before, this play has more drama, a twisty plot and the character of Govi, that shows what study and precision the Genoese actor undertook to make his character memorably come to life.It even woks as a movie, in the omonimous film starring Govi himself.That Blessed Soul)
Funny, somewhat dark comedy as it fiddles with the idea of the dead laughing at the living.Govi again is remarkable, in top shape, as one of his most memorable characters, and the support from Luigi Dameri is incredible once again.In this case, again we see a great performance from Govi, and again, great suppost by Dameri, who seems to be the best supporting player to go with Govi.We also get a cameo from Rina Govi.It's one of the longest plays that survived, but by the time it's over, it's overly satisfying.Who's Next)
Beautiful characterisation.It's clear that as usual the star is Govi, who plays one of three brothers.Govi plays the near blind superstitious but honest fella, Dameri plays the overly religious man who wants to become a monk and Renni plays the older brother who is all tough and charismatic.Again, it's very well written and entertaining from start to end,a dn again, has an amusing message, a morale that makes you think.But Barba I've had these since last year.All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.See Copyrights for details.Hear Govi and similar artists on this channel.SiteCatalyst code version: H.MemberAttribute( "cpath" ) )?MemberAttribute( "rsrc" ) )?"P: " + RhapsodyTracking.
