Oci Ciornie

Early 20th century: heartbreaker Romano can't take his eyes off the beautiful women. He only makes an exception for his own; after all, he married her for her money, not her looks. At a health resort, he meets Anna from Russia, who turns his head so much that he follows her to her homeland ... Mastroianni receives his third Oscar nomination for his portrayal of the bon vivant and charming swindler, who maneuvers himself deeper into another with every little lie, and the magnificently staged tragicomedy wins numerous awards. Today, the director, who was able to make his first film in the West with this film, is on various sanctions lists because of his blatant closeness to Putin. One can say: both rightly so.
