{"product_id":"the-seduction-of-mimi","title":"The Seduction of Mimi","description":"Amazon.com\n\nThis 1972 film by Lina Wertmuller (Seven Beauties, Swept Away) is a wild farce of the Sicilian milieu. Mimi (who is a man) is forced to leave his hometown when he can no longer get work as a result of voting against the local strong arms in a \"secret\" ballot. In the big city he finds work, but also finds that life there is very much as corrupt as it was at home. He falls in love and has a child by his lover, and when forced to take a job in his hometown again, he must hide his lover and their son from his wife. When he is too tired to please his wife in bed after making love all day to his lover, she becomes pregnant by another man, setting off a chain of events that ultimately lead to a public revenge scene that possibly has no rival. What's even more amazing is that the film manages to portray a complex protagonist in a searing comedy. A must-see, especially if you'd like a lighter view of the same world portrayed in The Godfather. --James McGrath\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1572522453\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1572522453.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Giancarlo Giannini|Luigi Diberti|Mariangela Melato|Agostina Belli|Turi Ferro|Elena Fiore|Tuccio Musumeci|Ignazio Pappalardo|Gianfranco Barra|Livia Giampalmo|Umberto Lentini|Rosaria Rapisarda|Lina Wertmller\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
