ABOUT THE FILMS ROMAN HOLIDAY, 1953, Paramount, 118 min, USA, Dir: William Wyler. A real-life princess (Audrey Hepburn), weary of her sheltered existence, takes off on her own to see the sights of Rome, only to encounter romance in the form of suave Gregory Peck. But unbeknownst to Hepburn, Peck is really a reporter out for a story, a fact that inevitably complicates things as the two grow more intimate. This sweet-natured romantic comedy directed by William Wyler won three Oscars, including Best Actress for Hepburn. FORMAT: DCP SWEPT AWAY… BY AN UNUSUAL DESTINY IN THE BLUE SEA OF AUGUST, 1974, Kino Lorber, 125 min, Italy, Dir: Lina Wertmüller. Giancarlo Giannini stars as a scruffy ship hand forced to endure the political and social criticism of a beautiful aristocrat (Mariangela Melato). When their yacht is blown off course, fate and the tide sweep the pair to a remote and uninhabited island. It is here that Giannini is finally able to exact brutal revenge on his gorgeous nemesis in the name of the working class. The roles of master and slave are reversed in a sophisticated mixture of visceral cruelty and hilarious battles of will. FORMAT: DCP
