action

The prince wants to follow her, which the king forbids him to do. However, Mr. Bonaventura and the beautiful Cece set out to find her.

criticism
Giuseppe De Santis complained that director Tofano had lost much of his genius, that the motifs were unconnected and did not show good taste.
In contrast, the lexicon of international film saw a “carefully designed fairy tale film full of restrained humor, very adapted to childish fantasy.” The film observer, on the other hand, saw the continuation of the story “with all due respect for southern capers and romantic irony (...) probably a little too far."
