Summary: The Nanny is a galvanic, profound and often shocking film about family ties.At the dawn of the 20th century, a Professor and his wife bear a child. But the mother cannot supply milk - or even love - to the child. So the professor hires an illiterate country girl as a wet nurse and a nanny. An explosive situation develops between the professor, the mother, the nanny, and the child.This powerful film was directed by Marco Bellocchio. Bellocchio and Daniela Ceselli wrote the screenplay after a story by Luigi Pirandello. Bellocchio is widely acclaimed as a daring provocateur of sexual mores, as in such films as DEVIL IN THE FLESH. THE NANNYfurther cements his reputation. But THE NANNYis much more than mere provocation - it is also sensitive, intelligent, and wise.
