Description
 
This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

In Italian with English subtitles. Also known as The Murri Affair and Drama of the Rich.

Directed by Mauro Bolognini. Based on a true story, this political drama explores the ordeal of Linda Murri (Catherine Deneuve), a 19th-century upper-class Italian woman who was caught in an unhappy marriage and who broke the code of behavior for aristocrats by taking a lower-class lover. After her husband was murdered, Murri stood trial for the murder. Her father's socialist opinions were clearly the reason for the harshness of the prosecution. The case was widely known throughout Italy at the time, and caused a national furor. The relentlessness of the prosecutor Giudice Stanzani (Marcel Bozzuffi) and the spinelessness of the family patriarch Augusto Murri (Fernando Rey), the professor with the unpopular opinions, are key dramatic features of this complex story.

5 of 5 Justice...or injustice of law? September 20, 2021
Reviewer: Nanne Pieter George Joosse from Amsterdam, Noord-Holland Netherlands  
This movie by M. Bolognini is also known under its English title "The Murri Affair". It appears to deal with the handling of a notorious murder trial from 1902 and is set in Bologna. However, the actual theme is much more the injustice of law. It got a well-deserved Donatello Award. Thanks to MovieDetective.net for insuring that people have access to this enthralling movie.
