Geppo il folle
Geppo il folle is a 1978 Italian musical-comedy film written, directed and starred by Adriano Celentano.[1][2] PlotGeppo is a successful singer, idolized in Italy and famous throughout Europe, who wants to make it big in America, where his idol, Barbra Streisand, lives—the only person in the world he considers to be on his level. But he doesn't know English. So, he turns to an attractive English teacher, Gilda, who gives him some lessons. Every time Geppo shows up in class, the female students literally fall at his feet, but Gilda seems to resist his charm. Meanwhile, he attracts the animosity of three young men who try to kill him, and at first, it seems like they succeed. However, he survives and begins to "preach"; he even delivers a sort of speech on a mountain, but no one listens to him. But when he starts singing, everyone goes wild for him. He also wins Gilda's love, who actually always had feelings for him. However, Gilda wants him to stay with her and not go to America. Geppo, on the other hand, decides to leave, and as photographers capture him on the steps of the plane about to depart, he grabs the flight attendant in his arms and kisses her, thus showing that he puts success above everything else.
