Product Review

Creating an earthy new sexuality for the post-World War II world, she became Italy's most beloved export. She is the only performer to ever win the Oscar; for a foreign language film. Sophia Loren has enjoyed a storybook career, rising from a dirt-poor childhood to become one of the most celebrated and admired actresses ever. Trace her remarkable life in this revealing program. Clips from her many films, including rarely seen footage from Italian features The Gold of Naples and Attila, show her evolution as a performer. But while her career has been a string of successes, conflict and turmoil mark her private life. Period accounts bring her battles with the church and state to life, while rare stills and interviews with biographers chronicle her tempestuous romance with lifelong love Carlo Ponti. From Love, Italian Style to her own, inimitable style, this is a revealing portrait of a truly international superstar.
