"I love grotesque poetry, and I think my films have that style, which combines humor and drama, irony and cynicism, comedy and tragedy. It allows you to play with different narrative tones and rhythms. It's more than a style-grotesque narrative reflects my own personality."

(Lina Wertmüller, all'anagrafe Arcangela Felice Assunta Wertmüller, regista, sceneggiatrice e scrittrice; Roma, 14 agosto 1928 – Roma, 9 dicembre 2021)
