An influential road movie, that set a tone for the genre about unlikely buddies pairing off.

Yes, the frame is filled with the era's bikini-clad pulchritude, but the fuel here is primo neurosis.

Bruno and Il Sorpasso are full of wonderful surprises and hidden depths, and they continually slip away from any attempts to reduce them.

It's a sunny, lazy day in early-1960s Rome - the city is "like a graveyard," with everyone away on holiday.
Seattle Times
When I first saw it 25 years ago, I couldn't wait to see it again right away. I've been waiting ever since.

NPR's Fresh Air
IL SORPASSO is genuinely amused by the frivolity it depicts, and Bruno’s behavior is every bit as charming as it is vile....Satirical but never scolding, the movie is entertaining because Risi understands the importance of having fun. -- Grade: A
