I racconti di padre Brown
Series Overview
Renato Rascel dons the priest-detective's cassock and, with irony and wit, embodies the character of Father Brown in the six episodes that make up the series. Endowed with a great humanity that allows him to “read” hearts, the protagonist, assisted by the repentant thief Flambeau, solves the cases that arise by resorting to psychological insights that are every bit as good as those of Agatha Christie or Georges Simenon. The series, produced by Rai and broadcast on Rai Uno in prime time, was a huge success with critics and audiences alike and also marked Renato Rascel's personal breakthrough as a comedy actor. He also wrote the theme song, which topped the charts for many weeks.
