Dollars are coming

In Mario Costa’s 1957 comedy, Alberto Sordi and Nino Taranto play two scheming relatives who go to absurd lengths to claim an inheritance from a wealthy American uncle. Their dreams of riches lead to comic twists and revealing truths. A lively farce about greed and delusion, the film captures the spirit of Italy's postwar boom and features Sordi in one of his early standout roles.
