People do not applaud instead whistles, burps, fart sounds and angry tirades are hurled against the poor actors who eventually have had enough of their audiences vulgar and unprecedented rudeness, leading them to turn against the public.During editing a scene with Alberto Sordi was cut because it was considered too immoral and cruel. In it, he played a rich man sitting at a bar watching some poor kids who are playing ball. A poor man, blind, sick and lame, comes to cross the street, preventing the rich man from viewing the scene. Alberto Sordi, annoyed, begins shouting insults at the blind man Get out of the way, you ugly old man Get out.citation needed ........
