So bad I couldn’t finish it

Buona commedia con ovviamente una bella regia di Fellini, un buon Alberto Sordi e un grandissimo Leopoldo Trieste.
Gli spunti metacinematografici sono divertenti e la critica all'orgoglio italiano nelle relazioni è ben esposto.
La trama è molto semplice ma comunque efficace.

Started doing backflips like a monkey with cymbals when Giulietta came on screen.

Fellini's characters in The White Sheik are what I would describe as unlikely likeable.

They are, I would say, irritating, but it is that quality that makes you root for them, as it is human. A husband selfish for his family's reputation, a wife who is trying to escape her reality, and a man whose fraudulence is hidden by his ego and fear. But at the end, you empathize, as these personalities are examples of how we humans are, and that's what makes us just like the characters — distinct and lovable.
