Fantozzi Retires

Fantozzi Retires, as a comedy, primarily elicits Humor, Joy, and Happiness from Ugo Fantozzi's often clumsy and absurd attempts to navigate his post-retirement life. However, true to the Fantozzi series, the film is deeply tinged with Anxiety and Melancholy as he grapples with hypochondria, unfulfilled desires (like with Miss Silvani), and the general pathetic nature of his existence. Audiences also feel Empathy for his everyman struggles and a sense of Nostalgia for the beloved character, alongside an initial Relief from his corporate life that quickly gives way to new comedic misfortunes.
