(1966)
Late Pressburger effort, his star on the descendent following the Peeping Tom debacle.
So he's fetched up in Australia for this peculiar comedy about an immigrant Italian making his way in a land of racism and ignorance. But you know what, those Australians turn out not to be so bad after all!
Walter Chiari is an appealing good-natured lead, mucking in with salt of the earth bricklaying Aussies, and falling for the daughter of a successful builder. Not really all that funny, but likeable enough.
