[AKI]-An Italian produced comedy with an Islamic terrorism theme entitled 'Che Bella Giornata' or 'What a Beautiful day' has broken the country's all time box office records for a locally produced film, hauling in a massive 42 million dollars in just two weeks after its release.
| Wasn't there a small British comedy recently about dumb "Asian" jihadis? One more and we'll have a solid trend... 'Fitna' was both a short and not a comedy, so it doesn't count. |
The film's plot revolves around a security guard who falls in love with an Arab woman who is planning to bomb the Milan Duomo.
The movie's success has also dethroned Roberto Benigni's Holocaust-theme 1997 film and triple Oscar winner 'Life Is Beautiful,' which held the title of highest-earning local film for 13 years running.
| It certainly would be amusing to some of us, should 'What a Beautiful day' also win statuettes in Hollywood. |
