The Sign of Venus offers an earthier
Sophia Loren than American audiences would later become accustomed to. Agnese (Loren) has no trouble attracting men, which is more than can be said for her plain-Jane friend Cesira (Franca Valeri). The two girls embark on a search for an appropriate mate for Cesira, despite the fact that all eligible males instantly gravitate to Agnese. Some of their choices -- petty thief
Alberto Sordi, impecunious poet
Vittorio De Sica -- are certainly not good for either girl...
Directed by
Dino Risi.
