Two Women
Sophia Loren deservedly won a Best Actress Oscar - the first time to a non-American actress in a foreign language lilm -for this Vittorio De Sica film, adapted by sereenwriter Cesare Zavattini from an Alberto Moravia novel. Though the movie is not the greatest of the De Sica-Zavattini collaboration, Loren is a marvel to behold.
She plays Cesira, a young widow in 1943 Italy who leaves her grocery store in San Lorenzo in the hands ofher sometime lover (Rat' Vallone), fleeing Allied bombing with her teenage daughter, Rosetta (Eleanora Brown), to return to her native village. There, atter an arduous journey; she meets Michele (Jean-Paul Belmondo), with who Rosetta falls in love.
But this is only the beginning of a tail marked with tragedy:
Loren also won Best Actress Award at Cannes and the same honor from the British Film Academy; more importantly she demonstrated in this film that she was a mature actress with talen to match her looks. Even deglamourised, she was still magnificent. Director, Vittorio De Sica also won an Oscar for this film.
