Troppo bello!
So Beautiful!
Year: 1909

To go to the wedding of the daughter of his friend Attilio Stringhini, Cretinetti puts on an elegant suit decorated with accessories which won't fail to catch eyes. Indeed, no sooner has he stepped out of his house, decked out in a top hat, shoes as long as they're pointed, and a cane, the spell is cast: one after the other, every woman succumbs to his charm. Victim of his get-up and more and more frightened, this odd dandy is forced to flee a horde of women head over heels in love.

André Deed, one of the most famous comic actors of French silent pictures, makes his entrance into Italian burlesque to play the role of Cretinetti in a long series of comedies.
