Who is jocapo in the count of Monte cristo?

Answer 1

First a small correction: his name is not "Jocapo" but " Jacopo" and the answer will depend a great deal on which Jacopo you are really thinking of.

If you are asking about Alexandre Dumas' character from the novel, then Jacopo was nothing more but a smuggler who worked on board the ship "The Young Amelia", but a smuggler whom contributed to Dantès' "fishing" out of the waters after the former's escape from the Château d'If . As time passes, Jacopo becomes quite fond of Dantès, for when Dantès fakes being injured, he asks permission to stay with the wounded although that would mean being stuck on the island of Monte Cristo for several days. In the end, Dantès rewards him by buying the poor man his own ship and crew.

Still, if you are asking about the Jacopo in the 2002 film, then I will say that he was a member of Luigi Vampa's crew of smugglers (and thieves) who attempted to hold some stolen goods for himself, thus resulting in his "comrades'" desire to bury him alive just as Dantès reaches shore after his long swim from the Château d'If. After Luigi forces them to fight each other, Dantès (who is victor) convinces Luigi to spare Jacopo's life and keep them both as members of his crew, which Luigi approves. Jacopo's reaction to this can be described as thus: "I swear on my dead relatives - and even on the ones who are not feeling too good - I am your man forever!" - a vow which he honors to it's fullest, for in the rest of the movie he seems to play the parts of Ali, Giovanni Bertuccio and Baptistin, being the Count's faithful servant and only "real" friend.

In the other Monte Cristo movies, Jacopo may or may not appear, but if he does then his part is small and rather similar to the one that the Jacopo in Dumas' book plays.

Answer 2

In "The Count of Monte Cristo," Luigi Vampa is the leader of a band of smugglers and bandits who reside in the Roman Campagna. He is a fictional character who plays a significant role in the novel by assisting the Count of Monte Cristo in his quest for revenge.
