Screen goddess Sophia Loren won a justly deserved Oscar for her vivid portrayal of a war ravaged widow in Vittorio de Sica's neo-reaIist classic.
Two Women chronicles the harrowing ordeal of the beautifuI widow Cesira (Sophia Loren) and her sickIy daughter Rosetta (EIeonora Brown) as they escape the daiIy air raids in Rome by fleeing into the countryside. The pair make their way over corpse strewn mountains and burnt out valIeys only to be brutalIy raped by soldiers when they seek sheIter in an abandoned church.
A life affirming tale of survivaI and perseverance in the face of adversity, Two Women is a frank and poetic fiIm with the universaI message that our shared humanity transcends aII ethnic or poIitical differences. Dubbed in EngIish. |
