Product Details


Product Description

Amazon.com essential video

Vittorio De Sica's delightful anthology comedy from 1963 pairs joined-at-the-hip costars Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni in three funny stories about sex. The first finds Loren playing an impoverished woman with a jail sentence hanging over her head. A unique loophole in the law, however, keeps her out from behind bars: pregnant women and new mothers cannot be incarcerated. Forestalling her date with the pokey, this incredibly fecund felon keeps bearing children. Her lucky but exhausted accomplice is played by Mastroianni, who can't resist her siren call between deliveries. The middle vignette finds the two actors playing secretive lovers having an affair. Shot mostly from within and around his car, the pair self-consciously quibbles and keeps having comic mishaps that slow their progress. The last story is the cheekiest, featuring Loren as an expensive hooker whose date with a--shall we say "anxious"--Mastroianni is repeatedly broken up by a neighboring seminarian whose commitment to chastity has been rocked since seeing her. This tale includes Loren's famous striptease, the one Robert Altman sweetly parodied in Ready to Wear. --Tom Keogh

1.0 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY THIS DVD..., Nov 29 2004
By 
Giuliano Gemma (MISSISSAUGA,, ONTARIO Canada) - See all my reviews
It is tragic to see that such a great Sophia Loren flick has been
reduced to this awful transfer on DVD.
Don't buy this DVD, the picture quality is so bad that the entire
movie is out of focus, fuzzy, blurry and hurts your eyes.The sound is all distorted as well.
This DVD is from a company called Entertainment Programs Inc., in California and they have obviously transfered a pan/scan version of a really bad washed out VHS tape on this DVD.
The Picture and the sound quality is worst than a VHS tape recorded in slow mode. I am surprised that Amazon is actually selling this junk.
This is the worst DVD transfer I have ever seen.
I have a VHS version of this movie and the VHS tape is much
better. Hope some reliable company will transfer this gem of a movie on a real high quality DVD, in the meantime save your money and watch your VHS tape. Don't buy this DVD, it is really bad
quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally Presented in Widescreen!, Feb 11 2009
By 
Marley Montserrat-howlett (Montreal) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow (DVD)
I felt tempted to write a review after reading the previous one here. The reviewer was not talking about the fantastic "NoShame" DVD. The "NoShame" release is the only North American DVD presented in widescreen and fully uncut. The DVD contains an extensive booklet, the picture quality is sharp and the audio comes in two languages: English and Italian. If you can find this rare release it's highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Confuse this great DVD with Terrible Past Transfers, Mar 28 2005
By M. Weisman - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow (DVD)
Most of the Amazon reviews linked to this new Region 1 DVD from NoShame films refer to the awful bootleg versions that have been previously available. Ignore them!

This DVD is gorgeous - with a beautiful 16x9 Widescreen (2.35:1) high definition transfer. There is an Italian track with optional English subtitles. There is also the option to choose the English dubbed track if you want to.

NoShame is also releasing a pristine version of the Fellini/Visconti/DeSica multi-part comedy Boccaccio '70 completely uncut for the first time ever in the U.S. The long missing Mario Monicelli segment has finally been restored as well!

1.0 out of 5 stars DUBBED!!, Jan 15 1999
By A. Corey - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 2pk: Two Women & Yesterday, to (VHS Tape)
I bought this because it looked like a good deal but I had no way of knowing that it was dubbed. I had originally seen both films in Italian with subtitles...and both truly are wonderful films (Sophia won Best Actress for Two Women). If they only included the information (dubbed or subtitled) I would have been able to make an informed decision instead of taking a shot in the dark. Obviously, I'm not happy with the dubbed version. Oh, and also, the quality of the video is less than great.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic Reborn, April 12 2005
By Gerry M. Allen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow (DVD)
Ignore the reviews of the bootleg DVD; this new digital transfer from the internegative is lush and clean. There is both a subtitled Italian audio track and a English dubbed version. No comment is needed about the film; time has proved its value.
Please view this extraordinary picture and compare it to modern sex comedies; you might conclude that we haven't advanced the art of film over this wonderful production. Buy, enjoy and spread the word.
