Although divorce is commonplace and widely accepted (even expected) in modern society, back in the day in Sicily it was flat-out illegal. The uproarious comedy, Divorce Italian Style (1961), stars the great Marcello Mastroianni in his prime. The film centers around a bored Sicilian baron who plots to force his wife to compromise herself with another man, so that he can honorably shoot her and then marry a 16-year-old girl. Although the plot sounds grim, the film is able to pull off a brilliant, subtitled farce with memorable scenes and characters.
