47 Talking Corpses

Directed by Carlo Ludovico Bragaglia

With Totò, Silvana Pampanini, Adriana Benetti, Dante Maggio and Tina Lattanzi

Greedy Baron Antonio Peletti refuses to give to his town the heredity left by his father, a box full of precious jewels, which he keeps for himself. The major and the rest of the townspeople therefore organize a trick at his expense: they'll make him believe he is dead, and, in a fake "afterlife", they'll try to convince him to finally show them where the money is hidden to save his soul.
