All Screwed Up (Tutto a posto e niente in ordine) is a 1974 Italian comedic-drama directed by Lina Wertmuller. The film follows the lives of a group of misfits living in Naples, struggling to make ends meet in a world that is completely out of their control. The story revolves around Gigi (Luigi Diberti) and Carletto (Nino Bignamini), two young men who move from the countryside to Naples in search of work. They end up getting a job in a textile factory, but their lives quickly become entangled in the complex social and political issues of the city. Gigi falls in love with the factory owner's daughter, but their love is doomed from the start.

The movie highlights the struggles of the working class, poverty, corruption, and the rampant oppression of women in Italy at that time. The film also touches upon homosexuality, as Gigi starts an affair with a transvestite. The film features several other unforgettable characters, including the ambitious Rosa (Lina Polito), who becomes a prostitute to earn a living, and a group of young people who are trying to start a revolution.

All Screwed Up marks Lina Wertmuller's return to Naples, which she has often portrayed in her films. Wertmuller directs the film with a raw and brutal honesty, allowing the despair and disillusionment of the characters to permeate through the film. She portrays Naples as a suffocating and violent city, with the characters living in constant fear of the police and the criminals who control the city.

The film is a story of survival, a meditation on the human condition, and a portrait of the harsh realities of life in Naples. The performances are excellent, with Lina Polito and Luigi Diberti standing out in particular. Polito's portrayal of Rosa is heartbreaking, as she struggles to survive in a world that has no place for her. Diberti's Gigi is a naive and idealistic character, trying to find his place in a society that has no use for him.

All Screwed Up is a powerful, thought-provoking film that captures the spirit of the time in which it was made. It is a film that reveals the desperation of the working class and the harsh realities of life in southern Italy. The film is bold and unflinching, and Wertmuller's direction is flawless. The film is a must-see for anyone interested in Italian cinema, and a testament to the power of cinema to capture the human experience.

All Screwed Up is a 1974 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 45 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.4.
