Otis Ferguson

The Affairs of Cellini is a humorous extravaganza that flops, partly because of what it tries to do and partly because of who does it.

I would call this a considerably lighter political film as it doubles as a screwball comedy but it does have a lot to say about politics.

The picture is really a sort of comic opera, all surprise entrances and sudden exits, flights of not too serious emotion and violent but amusing deaths.

It is so funny that you will probably have to see it twice, in order to catch the lines which were drowned out by your own raucous laughter the first time.

Gregory LaCava was more adept at directing melodramas and screwball comedies than historical epics, such as this one.
