Squabbles and Pairings. Lancaster appears as a wealthy, unworldly man of taste and learning whose upstairs apartments in Rome are invaded by a family of rich sybarites. The Professor, as he is respectfully called, has no intention of renting the unused space in the first place, but is bullied, bribed and bluffed into the arrangement by an arrogant countess (Silvana Mangano), her daughter (Claudia Marsani) and the daughter's boy friend (Stefano Patrizi...
