Are there any other films that deal with similar themes or social issues that you would recommend?


I recently watched this film and it surprised me with how tactfully it handled a difficult subject. The movie explores the concept of a "rehabilitating wedding," where a woman is pressured into marrying her rapist. Have you encountered this idea in other works of fiction? Any other films with similar social messages that you could recommend?

Also, yes, I know that "rehabilitating wedding” doesn't exclusively apply to cases of marriage post sexual assault, I’m simply referring to it that way because that’s how the concept is presented in the film.

I’m a fan of the director but I have not seen this one.

reply

I’ve never seen anything else by this director, but if you have other recommendations from his filmography I’d be interested to hear them.

reply

A Bullet for the General, an Italian Western and an Italian crime film called Confessions of a Police Captain are both well regarded in their genres worth checking out.

reply

Thanks, I’ll give them a go.

this is one of ornellas worst movies. horribly acted, terrible script bad directing, any cheesy italian movie from that era is recommended. some were actually not bad like her early one with adriano celentano. just avoid fellini that would not be your cup of tea, those would require functioning brain cells. hope this helps.

reply

Wow, you are salty to come over here. 😂 Also, this was one of the highest rated movies that Ornella did during the entire 70s, so I'm just going to assume that you're not very familiar with her filmography. She even won the Grolla d'oro for Best Debut Actress.

reply

Please tell me more about ornellas vast filmography which you have internalized...very interested.

reply

Nah. I already exposed you for lying about a film you've probably never seen because you're a salty b*stard. Our communication is pretty much pointless at this point. Also, I never claimed to have internalised her vast filmography. You're the one that said this was one of her worst films, implying that you're familiar with a large enough swath to definitively make that conclusion, when you didn't even know that it was one of her better received films of the 70s. Besides that, you were only able to mention her biggest hit in the 80s, The Taming of the Scoundrel, which isn't exactly what I'd call an early one of hers as it was almost a decade into her career 🤣. Such a refined palette you have!

reply

You have exposed yourself as someone , who cant debate! I asked you nicely to share your vast knowledge about Ornella Muti which you implied you have earlier, all you responded are insults and lies. Also accusing me of lying about having seen the movie, which in itself is so depraved and psychotic, it makes all your arguments look shallow and empty.Good for you.

1. We were not debating. You said a bunch of easily disproven nonsense about a film. I disproved it. That's not a debate.
2. I have no reason to talk to you for the reasons I already explained.
3. You were the one who implied familiarity. But yes, even though I have only seen a handful of her films from the 70s and 80s, I still knew more than you as I already displayed by disproving several of your arguments against the film. So yes, you're obviously not familiar.
4. If just pointing out that you were mistaken and drawing attention to what anyone who comes to this board can clearly see that you're doing equals "insults and lies" then then maybe you should reconsider which one of us is psychotic.
5. Do you know what the word "probably" means? It means that something is very likely or in all likelihood. Stating that it's very likely you never watched this movie isn't an accusation; it's simply a recognition of the most logical conclusion based on evidence. For example, maybe you happened to recall an Italian film from the 1970s, all the message boards for which were inactive for nine years until I made my post. Maybe you have seen it even though you don't seem to know anything about it, as evidenced by your initial comment. Maybe you have independently decided to comment on my post, unrelated to me calling you out on another board. And maybe you did all of these things after making a sizable number of posts calling other movies lame propaganda even though you couldn't have seen them all because some of them weren't even released at the times you made the accusations, thus proving that you have a habit of lying about films you've never seen. But, PROBABLY not.

Look at einstein’s post history and you’ll realize his is not worth replying to.

reply

Oh believe me, I already know. I've seen him called some variation of pathetic on so many boards without it deterring him at all that I'm starting to think that his entire schtick is all apart of some elaborate ruse to satiate his humiliation kink 😂

reply

1. wrong you havent disproven anything
2. what? are you having a psychotic episode?
3. you said that you have that knowledge
4. whataboutism
5. off topic ramblings

sorry but you still have zero arguments, you insulted me before without any reason, you keep going off topic, and also i have the feeling you have a psychosis or personality disorder.i am assuming, borderline, or narcissism. get well soon.

reply

You're pathetic and not worth my time. Everyone can see what you've done. Go bother someone else.

Look out for a good therapist, good luck to you!

reply

Same to you.
