Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
It is the tale of a Roman housewife who innocently thwarts her luckless husband’s efforts to make a dishonest living. As in many a commedia all’italiana, the setting is a harsh one—poverty, unemployment, and the petty crimes of a man caught between economic pressures and family devotion.
