The Legend of Al, John and Jack
Hapless Depression-era gangsters Al, John and Jack find out their boss wants to get rid of them and come up with a plan to sell him to the FBI, but Al's short-term memory loss could make it difficult.
Ask Me If I'm Happy
Aspiring thespians Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo work dead-end jobs while nurturing the dream of staging their production of Cyrano de Bergerac, but love for the same lady will tear their friendship apart. Three years later, Giovanni and Giacomo reunite after learning that Aldo is dying.
Three Men and a Leg
Friends Aldo, Giovanni, and Giacomo travel from north to south for Giacomo's wedding: the father of the bride, a tyrannical rich man who is both their boss and father-in-law—since Aldo and Giovanni have also married into the family—has entrusted them with a costly piece of modern art, one that looks just like a rather unremarkable wooden leg.
Have You Met Claudia?
Claudia is married with Giovanni, a rather dull type. Meek Giacomo is happily divorced, until he meets her. Aldo is a colorful cabbie with whom she had an affair. Who'll win her heart?
