The Guareschi family only discovered after 1980 that the original English language publishers made unauthorised cuts in stories, and only published 132 of the original 347 Italian stories.Most of the Don Camillo stories came out in the weekly magazine Candido, founded by Guareschi with Giovanni Mosca. The communists in that era (acctually in all eras after the death of Lenin) who lived outside the Eastern Block (and most of them in the Eastern Block as well) were not monsters trying to destroy everything.

It's the story of a Catholic priest and a Communist mayor who are each others worst enemy and best friend. If you're not prejudiced against black and white and foreign movies, this is a movie you have to see. Both were involved in the partisan war against the Germans and have a healthy respect for each other's physicality.Gino Cervi is Giuseppe 'Peppone' Bottazzi, the communist mayor and the fierce opponent of of Camillio. The stories are set in what Guareschi refers to as the "small world" of rural Italy after World War II.

The film was the highest-grossing film in Italy of all-time [6] and is currently the seventh most watched Italian film at the cinema with 13,215,653 admissions.

Camillio only only the voice of G*d to narrate the events and to reproach him when he fails in his work; however, since it's Orson Welles' voice, the honors are more than even in this loving little film by Julien Duvivier. Zoey goes along with this mistaken identity situation to help Zach until the other Zoey arrives, and so does trouble. A couple of criticisms are that the first few stories are not as strong and it is important to bear in mind that Jesus shouldn't be interpreted as Jesus but as the conscience of the author which is why he may feel off if you don't have quite the same interpretation of Jesus as the author. I see at IMDb that more modern versions of some Don Camillo stories have been made, and I hope to see them. The priest has been trying for years to scrape together the money for a town recreation center, then suddenly the Communists tap an unorthodox source of funds and build their own "People's Palace.
