Plot
A mixed gang of thieves plans to steal the treasure of San Gennaro from the cathedral of Naples.
Sinekatalog’s take
Dino Risi's caper comedy has a mismatched Neapolitan gang plotting to steal the saint's treasure from the cathedral. Nino Manfredi and Senta Berger lead a lively, witty and affectionate heist farce.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
