Boccaccio '70
Four of the greatest Italian directors – Fellini, Visconti, De Sica and Monicelli – join forces with show-stoppers Sophia Loren, Anita Ekberg and Romy Schneider in a carousel of sex and satire mocking the mores of Italian '60s society.
Director: Federico Fellini, Luchino Visconti, Vittorio De Sica and Mario Monicelli
Overview
A bigot obsesses over the gigantic poster of a voluptuous pin-up, a married woman finds a way of dealing with her husband’s passion for call-girls, a sacristan wins a night with a beautiful fairground woman in a village lottery and a married couple’s mishap enables them to buy their own house.
Four arresting tales of women’s empowerment and the sexual revolution in Italy’s 1960s boom years. This light-hearted hymn to life is presented here in all its full glory, including Monicelli's section which was edited out when the film was originally distributed in the UK.
