Andrea Boscardin
Mezzacapa: In Milan, when there is the fog you can’t see.
Antonio Caponi: Wow…and who can see that?
Mezzacapa: What?
Antonio Caponi: This fog, who can see that?
Mezzacapa: Nobody.
Antonio Caponi: I mean: if when there is the fog in Milan nobody can see anything, how can they know there is the fog?
(Totò, Peppino e… la malafemmina, 1956).
Totò is a very popular Italian actor from Naples. On this famous dialogue, taken from one of his movies, he uses a famous commonplace about Milan: the fog. By using it he actually shows how far the North and the South of Italy were – and sometimes still are to this day.
