Speaking of the Devil (Italian: Un piede in paradiso, also known as Standing In Paradise) is a 1991 Italian comedy film directed by Enzo Barboni. It was the last collaboration between Barboni and Bud Spencer with the pairs sons co-writing the film together; Spencer's daughter also plays a role in the film.
The role of Victor was originally intended to be played by Terence Hill, but Hill had to refuse as still being engaged on the set of the Lucky Luke TV series.[1] The film was filmed in Florida.[2]
