5.0 out of 5 stars Simone Signoret Could Set The Place On Fire, 29 May 2007
By David R. Bishop "Bishbaby" (Plymouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I speak maybe 20 words of Italian. 15 of them I learned while watching this film. I was mesmerised from the opening scene.

The film was released around the same time as British gritty realism films like 'A Taste of Honey' and 'Saturday Night Sunday Morning'. It is part of the Italian version of the same movement.

Simone Signoret was also in 'Room At The Top' which kicked off that genre in 1959. She has been described as the thinking man's Maralyn Monroe, (which is a little unfair to Maralyn who appealed accross the board). Simone Signoret certainly has bundles of glamour and charm and an exciting attractive screen presence. Add to that a continental air of chic mystique, and I just can't take my eyes off of her.

The story is of a group of prostitutes who open a restaurant and try to go ligit, but their past comes back to haunt them.

I got this film in a job lot of ex-rentals. I was going to give it to a charity shop, but I read the box, and thought I might try five minutes. The rest is history, and the film has fuelled a growing interest in foreign language movies.

There are English subtitles.
