Film vs Film
Select two cult films to compare side by side.
Mariute Synopsis
This is the account of a typical day of the diva Francesca Bertini in contrast to the story of Mariute, a single Friulian peasant girl with three children whose husband is at war. The poor woman suffers violence from three Austrian soldiers and is avenged by her father-in-law. The dramatic story, learned on set from an actor who has just returned from the front, leaves the actress so upset that she is induced to a surge of patriotic solidarity.
L'invidia Synopsis
A dancer and a Count have an adventure and a child is born. Some years after the mother will return and fight to have her daughter back, after being told out of pure envy that the baby had died in an accident. When she finds out the truth she threats the Count to tell everything about their past.
"Mariute" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "L'invidia" offers its own unique cult appeal.
