We Free Kings (film)
I magi randagi, internationally released as We Free Kings, is a 1996 Italian comedy film directed by Sergio Citti. The film won the Silver Ribbon for Best Original Story. Plot summary. Three amateur actors in theater are chased away by their performance, because the satirically subject from their complaint treats in a controversial manner the cruelty of the Nazis. The three actors take refuge in a rural country where they, having the bright idea to recite a sacred drama on the birth of Jesus Christ, have to interpret the three Biblical Magi. The show is so  successful and magically the villagers give birth to a son on Christmas Eve for every family, and there the faith in Jesus is regained. Critical reception. In "Time Out New York", Andrew Johnston (critic) wrote: "Warm performances from its lead troika and beautiful photography of the Italian countryside help compensate for the film's fairly flimsy nature. ... The humor is low-key but relatively consistent, and the three leads make a good comedy team."
