Ultimo tango a Zagarol (internationally released as The Last Italian Tango and Last Tango in Zagarol) is a 1973 Italian comedy film directed by Nando Cicero. It is a parody of Last Tango in Paris, set in the town of Zagarolo, in the province of Rome.[1]

The film had great commercial success, grossing about 950 million lire.[1]

According to the film critic Robert Firsching, "the humor is primarily of the cheap bathroom variety, as subtlety has never been director Nando Cicero's strong point, but there are some genuine laughs for the tolerant".[2]
