Director: John Landis
Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Ornella Muti, Don Ameche, Peter Riegert

A modest and overwrought comedy about a mobster who promises to his dying father that he will walk the straight and narrow. Predictably, Sylvester Stallone is not very funny. Award-wise the film didn't live up to its name. Based on Claude Magnier's play which was previously filmed in France in 1967.
