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