Excellent Drama - A Must See

Alessandra Martines is smashing, the supporting cast is exemplary. No overacted scenes this film is simply well done! Additionally the costumes are wonderful to observe in this elegant production.

The film chronicles Edda (Mussolini) Ciano daughter of Benito Mussolini from willful adolescence through her turbulent life. Her marriage to Galeazzo Ciano - Italian foreign minister and Fascist leader as well as life in the shadow of her father Il Duce.

This film is in two parts and one should not miss it. The sets, locations and costumes are exemplary as are the wonderful cast who bring Edda, Galeazzo and Il Duce to life.
