Elvjs & Merilijn [imdb] [viff]
Dir: Armando Manni
Country: Italy


A road movie about survival? Well, okay.

One Elvis impersonator from Bulgaria and one Marilyn Monroe impersonator from Romania win a chance for a job in Italy. Nifty! There are a few problems, however.

  1. Their common language is broken Italian, learned from late night soap operas
  2. Marilyn's passport has expired
  3. Elvis's passport gets confiscated
  4. Getting out of the country without a passport is difficult
  5. There aren't very many trustworthy people in a (former) war zone
  6. Not much food, either
  7. Italy's not all it's cracked up to be

So we get to see some nice terrain, some ugly terrain, some singing, some dancing, lots of eastern Europeans and a vibrating dildo. A competant, if forgettable movie.
