Editorial Review:
From Academy Award(R)-nominated director Lina Wertmuller (Best Director -- SEVEN BEAUTIES; SWEPT AWAY) comes this spirited comedy hailed by critics coast-to-coast for its vitality and raunchy good humor. CIAO, PROFESSORE! is the story of an upper-class teacher from conservative Northern Italy who, due to a computer error, finds himself teaching third-grade truants at a ramshackle school in the south. Yet along the way, the earnest "professor" learns some valuable lessons when he begins to see life through the fresh, vibrant eyes of his scrappy young students! Don't miss this rambunctious comedy -- a film absolutely brimming with life!

Rating: - Ciao, Professore belissima!
This is a very sweet movie and you will fall in love with the children! A definite one to see and or buy!
Rating: - Quite Excellent

It simply can't be improved, and I'll be watching this ... Read More
Rating: - Hilarious Comedy, Touching subject

Rating: - Classical Favorite!
This is definentely a favorite in our home. This is a movie which you can watch over and over again with out ever getting tired. An excellent movie both executed and directed. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
Rating:  - LAUGH AWAY your BACK-TO-SCHOOL BLUES ?
Feel those heart jitters? That's a genuine reaction from a heart-squeezing, fast-moving comedy about Marco Sperelli a teacher from uppity Northern Italy who is assigned - mistakenly - to teach street-smart third graders in a town near Naples.
The language might singe my ears if i understood Italian - - even so, a few asterisks or bleeps wouldn't be out-of-place! *Ciao* is vulgar & leaning toward an X-rating but it has just the right mix of garlic, laughter and truly heart-felt *lessons*. ... Read More
