The Best of Enemies (I 2 Nemici) (1 Viewer)

[cantinetozzo]

Great movie ..with outstanding actorsavid Niven , Alberto Sordi (for those of you who don't know him , he was one of the finest actors ever produced here in Italy),Harry Andrews,Michael Wilding,Ronald Fraser, Amedeo Nazzari (another great actor)Duncan Macrae,Aldo Giuffrè (he was the drunken Union Colonel in "The Good , The Bad & The Ugly)..directed by Guy Hamilton..http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054678/

The story is full of twists of fortune for the 2 "Enemies" Niven (A british officer) and Sordi (italian) , fighting in East Africa in 1940..there's everything in this movie that describes vices and virtues of the british and italian people and military..i hope for you there's a dvd on the UK or American market ..i own it in dvd but it hasn't neither english language nor subs..particularly good are the acting and interpretation of the second lines (Harry Andrews is a soldier in every respect, Ronald Fraser is the funny guy ,Wilding too at his best..)..

It looks pretty interesting and fun. There is a UK/Canadian DVD but I can't tell if it plays in the US or is region free.

Here is a scene posted from Youtube, after many trials the british and italian soldiers come to an highway..the italian believe they are going towards the british lines , so the british are happy..then they discover a milestone with "Addis Abeba" on it (the city was in italian hands at the time).. but...
Really hope some day a dvd for english speaking will be edited, it's really a funny movie.
