In many ways, 'I Nuovi Mostri' is an extension of Dino Risi's film „I Mostri”. However, its episodes were shot in color whereas the original "Monsters" film was shot in black and white. Most episodes of this film are about human nature especially shortcomings of people which reveal a negative facet of their lives. There are also episodes where the spotlight is on revealing the hypocrisy present in modern society due to strange rules and regulations. For example: an episode features an injured man who cannot be admitted to any hospital as there is no more room in a general hospital, no medical service after 23:00 in an hospital run by nuns and only military personnel with proper identification papers can be given treatment in a military hospital. Italian film 'Viva Italia'! is also known as "I Nuovi Mostri". It is the tale of new Italian monsters who represent weaknesses present in an average Italian. These people have been called "monsters" as their personal interests are always on top of their minds. These are the people who do not hesitate a bit in order to ensure their happiness at the cost of their beloved ones. An excellent film for all those cinema admirers who wish to learn more about Italian way of living.

Nando Moriconi is a young Italian living in the early '50s Roma. He is completely crazy for everything that comes from the States. He tries to speak American-English (the most funny ever), to wear like he thinks Americans do, to walk like John Wayne (!), trying to eat cornflakes with ketchup... His life is a complete parody of the real American way of life, which he couldn't ever get. Nando's, not so secret, dream is to go to the USA. To get it he goes to the Coliseum and threats to suicide if American Embassy don't give him the visa. But at this point Nando is very well known as a 'crazy-for-USA' boy and the troubles he provoked in the past, couldn't help him.

剧情介绍：意大利人Giuseppe Di Noi（Alberto Sordi饰）是一名土地测量员。他在瑞典生活了七年时间，这次利用假期，带着自己的瑞典妻子和孩子们一起回到了家乡。然而在边境上却毫无理由被拘捕起来，从此以后开始了一段如恶梦般的囚禁生活，从一座监狱转移到另一座监狱，他努力与自己所遭受到的任何羞辱和暴力进行着抗争。
一位在瑞典工作的意大利工程师携妻子回到祖国，做短暂停留，但却很快因不明罪案遭到监禁。在等待审判期间，他在一个比一个更恐怖的监狱间辗转。他的神志越来越脆弱，但却完全不知道自己犯了什么罪。在承受了更多折磨之后，他终于知道了指控是什么，但是同时也被无罪释放。
幕后制作：这部影片是对意大利监狱体制的辛辣鞭挞，不过也点缀着一些幽默的片断。影片由喜剧演员Alberto Sordi主演，并赢得了1972年柏林电影节“最佳男演员”奖。
影片的剧情并不复杂，讲述的是主人公连自己也不知道为什么，就被抓进大牢里。通过一系列难以预料的事情和不幸的遭遇，一步步将他推到暗无天日的深渊之中，也就是国家的刑事体系。随着剧情的进展，当主人公就连最基本的人的尊严都被剥夺的时候，影片中似乎每一分钟都在加重着黑色喜剧的味道。可怕的官僚主义作风和残酷的监狱生活使得电影充满了现实主义色彩，因此并没有沦为一般的恐怖寓言故事。
如果故事背景不是设置在战后的意大利，而是一个专政体制中，这将是一部完美的现实主义作品。Alberto Sordi一直是意大利最优秀的演员，演技精湛，扮演了一个深处艰难困境、很容易就轻信他人的善良人。
