La professoressa di lingue (lit. The languages teacher (feminine)) is a 1976 Italian sex comedy directed by Demofilo Fidani. The film is known in English as On the Tip of the Tongue.[1]
The film is set in Perugia. Michele has to learn foreign languages to overcome his stuttering. His newly assigned private tutor is a seducing woman called Pamela.
The film has been noted for its soundtrack by Lallo Gori: "that begins lightly with apparently simple themes given surprising development throughout the course of the movie, becoming almost difficult to recognize by the end of the film, wide and open".[2] The film itself received rather negative retrospective response.[3]
