action

Sandra and Giulio want to get married; she wants to introduce him to her uncle who could find him a job. But Giulio prefers to go with his friends to the football match between Rome and Naples. At the cash register he meets Ines, who is actually looking for her unfaithful lover Conti to shoot him. Giulio takes care of Ines all day, takes the pistol from her and talks her about the plan. In the evening Ines still meets Conti, confronts him and breaks up with him. Sandra and Giulio also meet that evening, but they make up after a brief argument.

Reviews

“What makes“ A Sunday in Rome ”so special is its ensemble, which is superbly deployed down to the smallest supporting role, and last but not least, this sometimes lightning-fast and yet uninterrupted sequence of seriousness and wit; and the gray tones in between, wonderfully underlaid by the music of the later Fellini regular composer Nino Rota. "

- Thomas Fröhlich : evolver.at

“A directorial work by Anton Giulio Majano, still in the style of Italian neorealism, showing the young Sophia Loren in one of her first leading roles. In addition to the later Italian superstar, the scenes of everyday life in Rome are convincing, the shots in the fully occupied stadium, which shows the football craze of the Italians across all social boundaries, are particularly successful.
