&#34;I couldn&#8217;t have been happier when Giovanni   Minerba made this proposition to me. I wanted to start out with a series of   &#8216;Madames,&#8217; ranging from the splendid  Madame X, by David Lowell Rich, with Lana Turner, to Madame Rosa, [starring] Simone Signoret,   and then on to Madame Sousatzka by John Schlesinger, with   the intriguing Shirley MacLaine, and finishing off with Madame de&#8230; directed by Max Ophüls, in 1953.

It doesn&#8217;t take long, however, for imperfection to knock at his door  in the form of his children from a former marriage and of a hunky  ex-soccer player from Argentina.
The festival&#8217;s opening ceremony was hosted by actress Lucia Ocone, and featured a special appearance by veteran actress Franca Valeri. Valeri  can be seen in Vittorio Caprioli&#8217;s Lions Lying in the [...]]]></description>
