Il Sorpasso

 

This is one of the better road movies I have seen. The little plot involves a bachelor and a law student. There's a subplot with the bachelor's fifteen-year-old daughter played by the gorgeous Catherine Spaak. I've only been familiar with Spaak through her excellent music, so it was nice to see another aspect of her entertainment career. I completely agree with Leonard Maltin that the movie ends on a sour note that destroys the free spirit of the movie.
