Summary: Filumena (Sophia Loren) was working in a brothel when she first met Domenico (Marcello Mastroianni), and his been his mistress ever since. Upon hearing that he plans to marry as much younger woman Filumena devises a brilliant scheme to convince him that it is her that he should be marrying. One of the finest films to come from director Vittorio De Sica, this spicy Italian romp showcases the charms of the ever-beautiful Sophia Loren and the equally suave Marcello Mastroianni.
