Papà
An unknown Menichelli, a young and lively beauty, is desired by two stars of the Italian scene: Ruggero Ruggeri and Amleto Novelli. This breezy story based on an comedy unreleased in Italy at that time is built around Ruggeri, who plays the role of a playboy father who wants to turn into the family delights rejoining his son until then neglected. Novelli, a little uncomfortable in a role that would have required ten years less, is the good-hearted rustic son. Pina Menichelli, adorned with flowers, wanders about on her bicycle, between not only two men, but also two lifestyles. In this role, she shows off a naturalness that will surprise people who know her only for her decadent performances. Sometimes, though, a dark glimpse reveals the character of the actress, that will stand out in the imagination of the public.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a breezy romantic dilemma, contrasting two lifestyles through the central figure of a young woman. It relies on the charm of its performers and explores themes of paternal rediscovery and choice within a comedic framework.
What lingers after viewing is the delightful naturalness of the lead actress, a surprising departure from her later iconic roles, and the lighthearted charm of a bygone era's romantic entanglements. — MovieFinder Editorial
