Due soldi di speranza

Apr 10 1952 N/A 1h 50m
Comedy, Romance

Once a young woman gets a man to fall in love with her, he must prove himself financially stable and meet her dowry requirements.

Plot

The story concerns the romance between Carmela and Antonio. The ardor is one-sided at first, but Carmela is a determined young woman, willing to scale and conquer any obstacle in pursuing her heart's desire. Once he's "hooked," Antonio scurries from job to job to prove his financial viability. Faced with the hostility of their parents, Carmela and Antonio symbolically shed themselves of all responsibilities to others in a climactic act of stark-naked bravado.
