Esposa amante

Being old, 66, I have seen thousands of movies and films. (My mom was a true film buff. On Sundays, we often went to two or three movies - each at a different theater!) Out of all the films I have seen, this is my favorite. If you are looking for an action film, this is not it. It runs to slow and thoughtful. It also is a bit of a 'woman's film'; even a film of women's equality (without being blatant or giving any lectures on the subject). It is a film for romantics and. .. those who love Italy. Just thinking of the scenes makes me want to return. I have never been to the little town/ village or the countryside where it was filmed, and I still want to go there. Perhaps next year. ..?

Laura Antonelli is perfect in the leading part, as is Marcello. I do not understand how this film "SLIPPED THRU THE CRACKS". The acting, photography and direction are all exceptionally fantastic. I am going to hook up my old tape player and watch it again tonight! If you can find it - watch it. It is a true sorrow that it has it NOT been released on CD!! IT SHOULD BE!!
