The film is known under the titles The Overtaxed (English) and Fripouillard et Compagnie (French). PlotMr. Pezzella (Toto) owns and operates a very well established luxury clothing store. He does not like and does not consider right to pay taxes, therefore he uses a tax consultant (Louis de Funès) to be able to evade more taxes. Unfortunately for Pezzella, the Guardia di Finanza decides to send an inspection, in the form of Marshal Topponi (Aldo Fabrizi) and Brigadier Bardi. This triggers Pezzella’s attempts (guided by the advice of his dishonest and ineffective tax adviser) to get into the graces of the marshal and try to bribe him, and sometimes openly declaring it with an excessive dose of servility. These clumsy attempts will cause the marshal a few headaches, due to the intrusiveness of Pezzella, and then will backfire against Pezzella himself. Topponi releases, finally, his survey report, dooming Pezzella to pay a huge fine. Not yet defeated, Pezzella decides an extreme action, and adopts a plan to steal the purse of the marshal with the report inside. But in the end, perhaps won by compassion for the troubles that the marshal would have gone through because of the stolen bag, and on the advice of a priest, Pezzella then returns the bag to his owner. Topponi and Pezzella, after many troubles, become friends and even father in-laws: in fact, the clumsy attempts by Pezzella to fool Topponi allowed the merchant's son to know the daughter of the marshal.
