It's Funny, it's Sad, and there's a rhinoceros.
Rhinoceros (pronounced /raɪˈnɒsərəs/), often abbreviated as rhino, is a group of five extant species of knee-less, odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae. Two of these species are native to Africa and three to southern Asia.
The rhinoceros family is characterized by its large size (one of the largest remaining megafauna), with all of the species able to reach one tonne or more in weight; a herbivorous diet; a thick protective skin, 1.5–5 cm thick, formed from layers of collagen positioned in a lattice structure; relatively small brains for mammals this size (400–600 g); and a large horn. They generally eat leafy material, although their ability to ferment food in their hindgut allows them to subsist on more fibrous plant matter, if necessary. Unlike other perissodactyls, the African species of rhinoceros lack teeth at the front of their mouths, relying instead on their powerful premolar and molar teeth to grind up plant food.
Rhinoceros are killed by humans for their horns, which are bought and sold on the black market, and which are used by some cultures for ornamental or (pseudo-scientific) medicinal purposes. The horns are made of keratin, the same type of protein that makes up hair and fingernails. Both African species and the Sumatran rhinoceros have two horns, while the Indian and Javan rhinoceros have a single horn.

Here's the premise:-
An opera singer dies in the 1920s
and in her will
she says that she wishes to be buried at sea
and have all of her friends and lovers and family
and cohorts all there to see her off
in a giant party.
So they all get on this ocean liner
and they go out to sea to bury her
and to throw her ashes off
and then of course, you know
they run into refugees and chaos ensues
but...
There's a scene where they're also transporting a
rhinoceros
from one place to another
and the rhinoceros has gotten sick.
It's down in the steamroom with all the workers
and one of the opera singers
is standing on this balcony looking down
on to the greasy workers below, who are sweating
and decides to sing to them
and starts singing and then one of the other opera
singers comes in
and then they have a pissing match over who can sing
better and...
It's all for a sick rhinoceros and a bunch of greasy
workers
It's, like, classic Fellini
"Excellent"
I am a one-ton, armor plated;
Living breathing being
I wade in streams all day;
Eat grass; and little else
Then one day my world was shattered
By freakish two-legged beings
Wielding instruments of pain
Hell-bent on striking me down
A super-psyochotic need
To make me and scream and bleed
Brought on solely by greed
I only want to be free
If I had my way, I'd stomp you flat
Under my bulk
Or ram this horn you so crave
Into your fucking throat
I'll topple the noisy creatures
In which you flee
But I'll never understand
