Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Guido (Italian pop-music superstar Adriano Celentano) is a millionaire who has made his fortune by inventing an unbreakable glass. He has everything he wants except for casual sex from a woman who knows nothing of his wealth. While riding the subway, his Rolex watch is lifted by the beautiful felonious female Tilli (Eleanora Giorgi). Guido falls for Tilli and spends the rest of his time trying to keep his identity a secret from her and her larcenous family. Celentano plays the role with slapstick flair reminiscent of Jerry Lewis and the smooth deportment of Cary Grant.
