Movie Info

In a series of different stories, Fantozzi (Paolo Villaggio) is a stoical low-level office worker. He is beset by a world of difficulties which, despite his best efforts, he never overcomes. Villagio enacts these episodes, based on stories from his own book, in a manner which many compared to Buster Keaton. Given a low-budget production, this film was nonetheless extremely popular in its native Italy.

Audience Reviews for Fantozzi

Structured as a series of sketches that can be quite hilarious (even if also harmless), this is a very funny slapstick comedy that became a classic in Italy, following an incredible amount of unfortunate events in the life of the unluckiest white collar worker you can imagine.

A milestone of italian comedy. Paolo Villaggio is beyond funny as the helpless victim of capitalism, the italian working class underdog Fantozzi, a man with an unbelievably bad luck. There is no plot, but who cares, almost every gag is a riot. Classic slap-stick.
