00:00Josephine Levine presents Boccaccio 70. Three stories of the sexes. Somewhat daring. Somewhat
00:16different. Somewhat delicious. Which Boccaccio might have included in his Decameron for audiences
00:24of 1970? The raffle. Who wouldn't want to take a chance on such a woman? Sophia Loren directed
00:38by Vittorio De Sica. The temptation of Dr. Antonio. Anita Ekberg directed by Federico
01:04Fellini. She dances through the streets, taunting and tempting him. She was his wildest dream,
01:17all 50 feet of her. A story that dares to be delightfully different, beautifully bold and
01:36dramatically exciting. The job with Romy Schneider, a great new star in a fascinating portrayal.
01:48Directed by Lucino Bisconti.
01:56It wasn't quite a profession. It wasn't quite a position. It was an enterprise.
02:03Nothing like it has ever been attempted on the screen. Boccaccio 70, conceived over 600 years
02:12ago and rewritten for audiences of 1970.
