Description

Wilma Malinverni (Virna Lisi) is a former prostitute and an aged nightclub singer. After having been abruptly fired, she leaves with her only fan, a young naïve girl known as the cricket (Clio Goldsmith). On the road as prostitutes, they meet Annibale (Anthony Franciosa), and decide to help him with his road stop for truckers. The place is named The Cricket and business goes well, so that Wilma ends up marrying Annibale. Then Saveria (Barbara De Rossi), the 18 year old daughter of Wilma, arrives: she is a prostitute too and starts a chain of events that will end up in tragedy.

    • Heavily Edited
Heavily Edited, waste of money, pity, it is a good movie, but this one is the TV version, not the original movie screen version, which can be found in VHS

Hopefully a proper DVD release of this splendid erotic melodrama will come out in the future.

    • Solid Story, Great performances, Terrible Transfer to DVD...
First off, let me state that the synopsis provided is mistaken on many counts, but we have only MYA to blame, as this is what`s stated on the back of the DVD cover. I`m getting weary of trashing MYA releases for retitling, repackaging, regurgitating without remastering, recklessly releasing films without any extras, improperly stating aspect ratios (this is one of them), etc. The story is solid, the performance given by Virna Lisi ('How To Murder Your Wife') is fabulous (she won an award for it), and the other actors (always liked Tony Franciosa) are all more than competent, and this is much more than the sleazy exploitation it`s being touted as. That said, the noteworthy nubile physical attributes of Clio Goldsmith and Barbara De Rossi do elevate the quotient of exploitation considerably, but a few of the nude scenes appear to be edited (again, blame MYA). But eye-candy abounds, so don`t be discouraged, if that`s why you`re interested. Now, back to bashing MYA - the picture is grainy at times, the colors washed out, some scenes are too dark and without contrast, no effort to find a decent print to release, no attempt at remastering, the subtitles are full of grammatical errors, it`s in full screen and not the 1.77:1 aspect ratio stated on the cover. On the plus side, at least it`s in Italian w/ subs and not horribly dubbed like most releases, and there`s a poster gallery. Too bad Severin or Synapse didn`t release it instead... ... show more
