The Return of Cagliostro (Italian: Il ritorno di Cagliostro) is a 2003 Italian mockumentary-comedy film directed by Daniele Ciprì and Franco Maresco.

For his performance in this film and in Break Free Luigi Maria Burruano received a special mention from the Pasinetti Award jury at the 2003 Venice Film Festival.

Synopsis

In the immediate post-war Sicily the La Marca brothers, owners of a sacred craft company, set up, with the consent of the Archbishop of Palermo Cardinal Sucato, the Trinacria House of Film Production, which they intend it should be the "beginning of a Sicilian Hollywood". The first films, played by non-professional actors, badly rehearsed and directed, are commercial disasters, and so to revive the fortunes of the company they have the idea to make a film about the life of Cagliostro, engaging Errol Douglas, an alcoholic Hollywood star whose career is going into sharp decline, in the title role.

Le film débute par une citation brève du précédent film de Daniele Ciprì et Franco Maresco, L'Oncle de Brooklyn (1995) : un homme exultant qui sodomise un âne. L'on comprend alors qu'il s'agit de la projection d'un film dans un cinéma, à laquelle assiste ébahie une galerie de personnages excités.

Le film évoque la carrière du duo comique sicilien qui compta parmi les plus célèbres des acteurs dans leur pays, Franco Franchi et Ciccio Ingrassia ; en utilisant des archives de leur répertoire et des témoignages originaux — par-dessus tout, ceux de la famille et des amis des réalisateurs — il imprime en quelque sorte à la pellicule son propre et authentique récit cinématographique.

He is content to spend his time fishing, hunting and puttering around his large family mansion, inhabited only by himself and a butler (Scatman Crothers).
