Review of The Return of Don Camillo

"Le retour de Don Camillo es the second film of the saga Don Camillo-Peppone,it was directed by Julien Duvivier (1953) with the same actors ,Fernandel and Gino Cervi.As punishment because he has hit Peppone Don Camillo is sent to a mountain village, Montenara; it's snowing,the local church looks empty and Don Camillo feels sad and alone.He will go back secretly to look for his crucifix in Brescella and Peppone will helped him giving him a lift.Peppone has great trouble with a landlord, because the village needs to build a dam against the floods of the Po river and Peppone visit the archbishop to obtain the return of Don Camillo who can be able to convince the reluctant landlord. I enjoyed very this story about rivalry and friendship between the two strong men of Brescella.
