NOTES: I have not seen this period comedy, one of numerous "Decameron"-style sex films made in Italy in the early 1970s. Using my (practically nonexistent) Italian, it seems the basic plot of this film is--
Nuccio visits the monastery where Friar Tazio lives. The Friar is well known for his healing powers. Nuccio impersonates the Friar in order to take carnal advantage of Monna Lisa, the beautiful wife of the fearsome knight Lapo, as well as other women. Friar Tazio, unaware of the deception, is shocked when his female "patients" seem to expect more of him than his usual services...
