Run, Run, Joe!
Run, Run, Joe! (Italian: Arrivano Joe e Margherito, also known as Joe and Margherito) is an Italian comedy movie directed in 1974 by Giuseppe Colizzi. It is the penultimate movie of Colizzi, before the posthumously released Switch.[1] The movie reprises the style of the movies of the popular duo Bud Spencer-Terence Hill, that the same Colizzi had launched in 1967 in God Forgives... I Don't!.[1][2] It was co-produced with West Germany (where it is known as J & M - Dynamit in der Schnauze and Dufte Typen räumen auf), Spain (where it was released as Joe y Margherito) and France.

Joe is assigned to protect Don Salavatore who is about to leave Italy for the United States. Don Salavatore has a number of enemies but Joe is supported by a new friend, the courageous mariner Margherito.

They start to pretend they were English.
