Mr. Fifteen Balls (Italian: Il signor Quindicipalle) is a 1998 Italian comedy film directed by Francesco Nuti.[1][2]

Plot summary

Francesco is a Tuscan very good at playing American pool, so much so that he is nicknamed "Mr. Quindicipalle", from the time he pocketed fifteen ("quindici") balls ("palle") at the same time, using the wooden handle of a broom to cue. Francesco also has to be an expert womanizer, like his father, who died recently. Indeed, Francesco meets the woman of his dreams going to find the father to the cemetery. There, Francesco meets a prostitute who calls herself "Sissi". The two fall in love, and so Francesco thinks she might be a lucky charm for him, because Francesco is training for a big tournament of American billiards. But Sissi is still a prostitute, and so she makes infuriates many times Francesco, compromising his skill and his training for the tournament.
