<P> Vanucci poses as an Italian neo-realist director named Federico Fabrizi . He plans to bring the gold ashore in broad daylight as part of a scene in an avant - garde film . To give the picture an air of legitimacy, he cons the vain Tony Powell to star in the film, blatantly titled The Gold of Cairo--a play on The Gold of Naples, a film De Sica directed in 1954 . Powell's agent, Harry (Martin Balsam) is suspicious of Fabrizi, but his client wants to do the film . Fabrizi enlists the starstruck population of Sevalio, a tiny fishing village, to unload the shipment . However, when the boat carrying the gold is delayed, Fabrizi must actually shoot other scenes for his faux film to keep up the ruse . The ship finally arrives and the townspeople unload the gold, but Okra double - crosses Vanucci and, using a movie smoke machine for cover, drives off with all of the gold . A slapstick car chase ensues, ending with Okra, Vanucci and the police crashing into each other . Vanucci, Tony Powell, Gina, Okra, and the villagers are accused of being co-conspirators, and Vanucci's "film" is shown as evidence in court . An Italian film critic leaps to his feet and proclaims the disjointed footage to be a masterpiece . Vanucci suffers a crisis of conscience and confesses his guilt in court, thereby vindicating the villagers, but proclaiming that he will escape from prison once again . </P> <P> The film's final scene shows Vanucci escaping from prison by impersonating the prison doctor again . This time, however, he ties the doctor up and walks out of the prison in his place . When he attempts to remove the fake beard that is part of his disguise, he discovers that the beard is real, and realizes that the "wrong man" has escaped from prison . </P> <Ul> <Li> Peter Sellers as Aldo Vanucci / Federico Fabrizi </Li> <Li> Victor Mature as Tony Powell </Li> <Li> Britt Ekland as Gina Vanucci / Gina Romantica </Li> <Li> Martin Balsam as Harry Granoff </Li> <Li> Akim Tamiroff as Okra </Li> <Li> Maria Grazia Buccella as Okra's sister </Li> <Li> Maurice Denham as The Chief of Interpol </Li> <Li> Paolo Stoppa as Polio </Li> <Li> Tino Buazzelli as Siepi </Li> <Li> Mac Ronay as Carlo </Li> <Li> Lydia Brazzi as Mamma Vanucci </Li> <Li> Lando Buzzanca as The Police Chief </Li> <Li> Tiberio Murgia as 1st Detective </Li> <Li> Francesco De Leone as 2nd Detective </Li> <Li> Pier Luigi Pizzi as Prison Doctor </Li> <Li> Enzo Fiermonte as Raymond </Li> <Li> Carlo Croccolo as Salvatore </Li> <Li> Nino Vingelli as a judge </Li> <Li> Vittorio De Sica as himself </Li> </Ul> <Li> Peter Sellers as Aldo Vanucci / Federico Fabrizi </Li>
