La Vedovella | Peppino De Filippo | Maratea Film
"La Vedovella" (Pretty widow)
by Silvio SIANO , 1964
type: commedy
The film, shot in Maratea and surroundings, was one of many "light" feature films by Peppino De Filippo, enlivened by the presence of a very young Margaret Lee.
It can be considered among those first attempts in the 60s to promote a tourist resort through cinematographic art.

La Vedovella - plot
Susy realizes the situation and shrewdly takes advantage of it, not disdaining to commit her graces unreasonably. In fact, he succeeds in obtaining the unanimous vote of the city council against the expropriation of his land, and, cried all the interested suitors, dedicates his affection to Corrado, a technician of some important factories in the area.
