ROME – The echo of Fantozzi returns to the Lazio Region building on Via Cristoforo Colombo, where the first chapter of the saga of the legendary accountant created by Paolo Villaggio was filmed. The copy from original casts of the statue of the mother of mega galactic director Catellani, the one that accountant Ugo banged his head against every morning, “will return to the Lazio Region”.
The president of the Lazio Region, Francesco Rocca, jokingly broke the news in an exclusive Dire interview on the sidelines of the European States General on sustainability which is being held today at the Trajan’s Markets. ” It will not be displayed at the entrance as in the film– clarified Rocca – but between the first and second floors, accompanied by a plaque, a tribute to the great actor Paolo Villaggio, who chose that building to set the first unforgettable film ‘Fantozzi'”.
