In 1984 , he directed and co-scripted '' Tutti dentro '' ( '' Off to jail , everybody '' ) , in which he played a judge who has warrants for corruption served on ministers and businessmen . Alberto Sordi was really masterful in two broad roles : one being the one of the underdog , militating against injustices and prevarications , the other that of the prevaricator himself . One has only to watch his performances as the returning emigrant unjustly convicted in '' Detenuto in attesa di giudizio '' or the miserly sub-proletarian of '' Lo scopone scientifico '' teased by the old millionaire Bette Davis into endless card games where he hopes to find release from his poverty to appreciate his skills in the first role , while the rampant , unscrupulous doctor he plays in '' Il medico della mutua '' is the perfect example of his aptness at rendering characters who were both truly despicable and completely believable . In 1985 , he was a member of the jury at the 35th Berlin International Film Festival
