Horse Fever is a 1976 film, signed by Steno.
44 years later, the film starring Enrico
Montesano
, Gigi
Proietti
and Francesco
De Rosa
, moneyed horse bettors, is a real cult, especially in
Rome
, where the film was completely shot.
Thanks to the shots of Lost in Location, the social page that, through a photographic game, connects set and reality, we rediscover together the places that have been the setting for one of the cornerstone films of the new Italian comedy.
TOR DI VALLE
- The racecourse where "the mess began", as explained by Mandrake (Proietti) himself in the first scenes of the film, is precisely that of Tor di Valle.
The structure, however, was definitively closed in 2013 and is now destined to host the new stadium of Roma.
Here they are the three after running out of petrol, stop on via Ostiense, right in front of the racecourse
