Storyline

- TriviaItalian censorship visa #14698 dating from 12 July 1953.
- GoofsPay close attention to Don Camillo's hand with the glass of castor oil in the "Castor Oil" scene. He pours what is clearly a viscous, oily liquid into the glass. Before drinking however, his hand drops out of view and when he puts the glass to his mouth the liquid is all of a sudden clear water. Apparently drinking the castor oil for real was one step too far.
- Alternate versionsTwo versions of the film were shot: one in Italian, one in French.

Featured review
"Le retour de Don Camillo es the second film of the saga Don Camillo-Peppone,it was directed by Julien Duvivier (1953) with the same actors ,Fernandel and Gino Cervi.As punishment because he has hit Peppone Don Camillo is sent to a mountain village, Montenara; it's snowing,the local church looks empty and Don Camillo feels sad and alone.He will go back secretly to look for his crucifix in Brescella and Peppone will helped him giving him a lift.Peppone has great trouble with a landlord, because the village needs to build a dam against the floods of the Po river and Peppone visit the archbishop to obtain the return of Don Camillo who can be able to convince the reluctant landlord.
I enjoyed very this story about rivalry and friendship between the two strong men of Brescella.
