Il Mostro Roberto | Benigni

[Your Name] Course: [Italian Cinema / Film Studies] Date: [Current Date]

Roberto Benigni’s 1994 film Il mostro (released in English as The Monster ) occupies a unique space in the canon of Italian commedia all’italiana. While on the surface a slapstick vehicle for Benigni’s hyperactive physical comedy, the film functions as a sharp social satire of urban paranoia, media-induced hysteria, and the ambiguity of identity. This paper argues that Il mostro uses farce to deconstruct the very notion of the “monster”—shifting it from a singular criminal figure to a diffuse, societal phenomenon rooted in fear, prejudice, and the failure of institutional justice.

The film follows Loris (Roberto Benigni), a bumbling, childlike salesman who rents a room in Rome. Through a series of innocent but bizarre coincidences—found gloves, a misplaced knife, awkward encounters—he is mistaken by the police for a serial killer known as “The Monster,” who murders women in sexually suggestive ways. Inspector Jessica (Nicoletta Braschi) goes undercover as his neighbor to entrap him. As she spends time with Loris, however, she recognizes his genuine innocence and gentle nature. The film culminates in a frantic chase, a mock-trial, and Loris’s eventual exoneration, ending with him literally riding a horse through the streets—a final gesture of liberation.
