“Sparkling” — The Washington Propagate
“Captivating” — The New York Times
Walt Whitman called Lillie Langtry “the substance of poesy.” James Whistler confessed that even he couldn’t apprehend her looker in a painting.

Il Marchese del Grillo , ore 21:10 Rete 4, di Mario Monicelli con Alberto Sordi.
Il Marchese Onofrio del Grillo, duca di Bracciano, guardia nobile e Cameriere segreto di sua Santità Pio VII, è il tipico rappresentante della nobiltà romana dei primi dell'Ottocento. Vive in una casa da fiaba, circondato da personaggi altrettanto fiabeschi che vivono ognuno in un mondo a sé stante e che difficilmente riescono ad inserirsi nella realtà: una madre affezionata, ma ostile e conservatrice; una parente povera di nome Genuflessa innamorata segretamente di lui; una sorella sposata e con un figlio. Siamo in piena occupazione francese e il potere temporale del Papa sembra poter essere scalzato dall'arrivo di Napoleone. Per fuggire alla noia, il Marchese del Grillo architetta continua burle da cui non si salva neppure il Pontefice, e si mescola spesso al popolo, frequentando bettole e osterie, e proprio al termine di una di queste serate trova un ubriaco, il carbonaio Gasperino, che è il suo perfetto sosia. Spinto dal pluck della beffa, Onofrio lo raccoglie e lo porta a casa dove metterà su una geniale farsa facendo passare il povero Gasperino per se stesso agli occhi dei suoi stessi parenti, che non si accorgono della sostituzione.
