Both Sophia Loren and co-star Mastroianni (La Dolce Vita, 8 and 1/2) are more irrepressible than ever: their talent, exquisite timing and their sheer chemistry emphasised by the direction of the Award-winning Vittorio De Sica (Umberto D. Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow) explode onto the screen!

Filumena is the lifetime mistress of a wealthy playboy who is planning to leave her and marry another woman.  She will do anything in her power to stop this and marry her instead, including revealing that shes had three children that she kept hidden from him and one of them is his.  But which one?
A powerful balance of comedy and drama, with extraordinary performances from Mastroianni and Loren at their best!

For the 1st time on video, the film is presented both in subtitled Italian and spoken English, enabling a new appreciation of this quintessential play which was first brought to UK by Franco Zeffirelli, and later showcased by Peter Hall with Dame Judy Dench. A timeless comedy of our all-too-human foibles.
