An American In Rome
''An American in Rome'' (originally ''Un americano a Roma'') is a 1954 Italian comedy film directed by Steno. The film consists in a satire of Americanization, and it was referred as "a milestone in the evolution of Italian self-identification". It starred Alberto Sordi, with a young Ursula Andress in a minor role. Overview Sordi reprises the character of Nando Mericoni he played a few months before in an episode of comedy film ''Un giorno in pretura''. The character eventually returned in Sergio Corbucci's ''Di che segno sei?'' (1975). Due to the continuous references of ''Nando'' to Kansas City, Alberto Sordi received in 1955 its honorary citizenship. ''Nando'' would really refer to the state of Kansas and not to the city (he spoke about the life in ''the'' Kansas City and referred to him as a sort of highway policeman of ''the'' K.C.).
