The director of this film, Ettore Scola, also made a better film about Italy under fascism: the masterpiece Una giornata particolare/A Special Day. Also see The Wedding Song, a fine piece about a Muslim-Jewish friendship during the Nazi occupation of Tunisia directed by Karin Albou of the very good Little Jerusalem.
