Easter Eggs
The Letter Scene
The scene where they write to Savonarola is a direct homage to the famous letter-writing scene in the 1956 film Totò, Peppino e la malafemmina, honoring the legacy of Italian comedy duos.
Yesterday
Mario tries to impress Pia by singing 'Yesterday' by The Beatles, claiming he wrote it. This predates the film Yesterday (2019) by decades as a joke about plagiarism in time travel.
