Botta e Rispota is Tales of Manhattan, Italian style. A modish dress gets lost while being shipped from Paris to Rome. This single incident unifies a series of specialty turns by a variety of the top acting and musical talent in the Free World. Fernandel, Nino Taranto, Isa Barzizza and Suzy Delair are featured in the framing story. The musical numbers are handled by the likes of Louis Armstrong, Earl Hines, Katherine Dunham and Borra Minnevitch's Harmonica Rascals. The preponderance of black entertainers in Botta e Risposta unfortunately precluded its widespread distrubition in some areas including the southern part of the United States.
