Even Angels Eat Beans

About This Movie

Even Angels Eat Beans, directed by Enzo Barboni, is a quirky mix of action, comedy, and crime that really captures the chaotic atmosphere of the Depression era. The film follows two buddies, whose mismatched personalities create a delightful dynamic as they stumble into a world of mistaken identities and mob antics. There's a nice blend of humor and tension, with some decent practical effects that pack a punch. Performances are quite endearing, and the pacing keeps you engaged without dragging. It feels like a time capsule of that era, showcasing a unique blend of genres that keeps it distinctive in a sea of buddy comedies. Definitely has that raw charm that you find in lesser-known gems from the '70s.
