My Name Is Rocco Papaleo () is a 1971 Italian film directed by Ettore Scola.

Description The film follows a former boxer from Sicily (Mastroianni) who emigrates to the United States, but rather than success he finds only poverty and loneliness. The film was shot partly in Chicago, and was made while Scola was doing post-production for Trevico-Turin: Voyage in Fiatnam, another "politically engaged" film. It was called "a harsh attack on American consumer values and their soul-destroying materialism".
