[DIVORZIO ALL’ITALIANA]
Baron Ferdinando Cefalù (Marcello Mastroianni) longs to marry his nubile young cousin, Angela (Stefania Sandrelli), but one obstacle stands in his way: his fatuous and fawning wife, Rosalia (Daniela Rocca). His solution? Since divorce is illegal, he hatches a plan to lure his spouse into the arms of another and then murder her in a justifiable effort to save his honor. Pietro Germi’s hilarious and cutting satire of Sicilian male chauvinist culture won the Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay. (Note adapted from Janus Films.)
