Curator Notes

Film Series/Exhibition Title: 
Marcello Mastroianni at 100
Description: 

Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni were in many ways like the screwball comedy teams of 1930s Hollywood, irascibly antagonistic and inherently romantic. But Loren and Mastroianni were brilliant in a very particular way: they forced each other to be human or, in Mastroianni’s case, to at least turn his face from the screen when he couldn’t be. That studied Mastroianni gesture is the curious “happy” end of this Vittorio De Sica film that has been miscast as a comedic sequel to Divorce Italian Style but whose title actually rings with a chuckling irony and the perennial tragedy of Italian life.
