"Mambo Italiano" was shot in bright primary colors, giving the audience a warm but tacky feeling. The film has a smooth rhythm
, and the clever loan out of the cabinet shows a cross-cultural dilemma
and reveals the friction between immigrants and the society in which they live
. Although the portrayal of Italian immigrants in the film has a certain stereotype, considering the label of the comedy, it is not difficult to understand the appropriate exaggeration
. The screenwriter packed the film with jokes. Half of the plot of the film is spent in laughter, but there are also some nonsense that is not funny
. In addition, the director Emile Gadril neatly showed the scenery of Montreal in the film, and Patricia Christie's colorful styling and Italian-style music created by composer FM Le Sieur added vitality to the film
.
