Sophia Loren in A Special Day

A very delicate, funny and moving story of the encounter between two people who are poles apart. Beautifully directed by Ettore Scola, it won the Golden Globe for best foreign film.  Set in 1938 during Adolf Hitler visit to Mussolini, it tells the story of Antonietta (Sophia Loren) a working class housewife, left alone by her family who like most people in Rome went to the parade, meets the only other person left in their block, Gabriele (Marcello Mastroianni) a persecuted homosexual radio announcer.  They strike an unexpectedly close friendship that will change their perceptions of love, politics and life itself.
