For Love and Gold
dir. Mario Monicelli · 1966
The pursuit of wealth and status often leads to unexpected adventures and reveals the true value of friendship and loyalty.
"For Love and Gold" invites you on a whimsical adventure through absurdity and camaraderie, as a ragtag group of rogues navigates the folly of noble quests and the seduction of greed. With its satirical edge and vibrant visuals, this film reimagines chivalry in a hilariously unpredictable journey.
A group of rogues steal a scroll granting its bearer the property of the land of Aurocastro in Apulia, a province in the south of Italy. They elect a shaggy knight, Brancaleone from Norcia, as their leader, and decide to get possession of this supposedly wealthy land. Many adventures will occurr during the journey.
