The last time a movie affected me so strongly during the show, I believe it was another Italian movie called "cannibal holocaust".
If you've seen that movie, you know what I mean.
But "Un borghese piccolo piccolo" is even more powerful because I expected a comedy till the point... Till the point the movie twists all of a sudden, unexpectedly, and the drama and sadness overwhelms you.
The movie doesn't give up on the comedy side yet and there are some great touches like the mortuary room scene, but at this point it doesn't make you smile anymore but only further piles up to make you even queasier and uneasy.
After that, a further twist: we start bordering on schizophrenia and insanity with a reflection on how a "normal little man" can be pushed to doing horrific things.
I was watching it during a rainy evening and I had to stop to only resume it the day after.
Will not forget this movie.
