Scandalo in famiglia
To see "Scandal in the family" we had to work
hard. On Internet, on specialized sites, in the few niche shops
remained. We watch until late night the regional televisions, and then
we search VHS on our boxes in the cellar. Dusty and forgotten it was
there, on a videotape shaky. A difficult adventure. On a shaky VHS.
It’s the sign of a movie that perhaps the same protagonist,
Gloria Guida, has forgotten. Sign of a loaf of Italian comedy or drama
very inflated and full of titles worthy of oblivion. Sign that
"Scandalo in famiglia" is one of those episodes that seek to follow the
wave of the moment but that can not affect.
Marcello Andrei tries the way of the incestuous stories much in vogue
in the mid-seventies, with a movie that point toward to comedy and of
course on our Gloria Guida, once again at the center of the morbid
desires of adults. Stripped and protagonist of an impossible love is
the only decent aspect of this movie disappointing for structure,
history and the waste of a potentially great cast.
Andrei tries the comedy way, failing completely objective and not
remedying even on the erotic, represented only by the body of the fair
guide and little else. Carlo Giuffre, Gianluigi Chirizzi, Lucretia Love
and Luciana Turina, are the names that highlight the waste of Andrei,
not skilled in managing such a large group of important names for genre
cinema. So boredom reigns.
Donna Nunziata (Lucretia Love), the widow of a Sicilian baron sex
maniac, asks to his brother Antonello (Carlo Giuffre) to help her grow
her stepdaughter Elena (Gloria Guida). She falls in love with her uncle
and tries in every way to seduce him. He even attracted promise her to
Saverio (Gianluigi Chirizzi). But the passion between the nephew and
the uncle is going to explode.
