The New Monsters

Every man in these fourteen episodes wants one small thing and gets it by whatever means are handy. A cardinal (Vittorio Gassman) needs his congregation kept liberal, a husband (Ugo Tognazzi) is working an angle, and a motorist (Eros Pagni) has picked up a hitchhiker (Ornella Muti). Mario Monicelli and Dino Risi trade the stories off with Alberto Sordi in several roles, and in each one the cost of getting what they want lands on someone nearby.
