Mario Monicelli has spent the last 60 years telling Italy's sad stories with a smile. The father of Italian comedy, he is also the winner of two Golden Lion awards - one for The Great War, the other a lifetime career award. Monicelli has just celebrated his 93rd birthday but his grasp of Italian society and politics is as sharp as ever. EuroNews met him at his home in Rome, the city where he's lived for more than 70 years.
