Fortunato

1942 · 71 min

A gentle, old-fashioned comic romp about a hapless man's endless misadventures, charming rather than laugh-out-loud, easy to drift along with.

Overview
Fortunato is a loser, a family man, who has lost his job and tries his luck in all the trades he finds. However, it seems that his name —that means “fortunate” in English— is not in line with his situation, since, no matter how hard he tries, fortune does not want to smile at him.
