Synopsis

Aux prémices de la seconde guerre mondiale, alors que le fascisme s’empare de l’Italie, la mafia sicilienne est dévorée par des luttes intestines qui éclaboussent de sang les rue d’Italie jusqu’à celles de New-York. Dans ce climat délétère, Titina (Sophia Loren) perd son mari, brutalement assassiné par la pègre. Alors que Spallone (Marcello Mastroianni), de retour d’un exil de 10 ans, succombe aux charmes de la jeune veuve, Nick (Giancarlo Giannini), un petit truand décidé à venger le meurtre de son cousin, revient au pays et s’éprend également de Titina. La rivalité entre les deux hommes grandit, et empoisonne la vie du trio, alors que la guerre approche…

An arrogant wealthy capitalist named Raffaella (Mariangela Melato) is vacationing on a yacht in the Mediterranean Sea with friends—swimming, sunbathing, and talking incessantly about the virtues of her class and the worthlessness of the political left. Her nonstop political monologue infuriates one of the underclass deckhands on her yacht, Gennarino (Giancarlo Giannini), a dedicated Communist who manages to restrain his opinions to avoid upsetting his boss and losing his good job. Despite her humiliating insults, Gennarino agrees to take her out on a dinghy late in the evening to see the rest of her friends who have gone ahead without her. On their way, the outboard motor gives out, leaving them stranded in the middle of the sea with no land in sight.

A Sicilian baron, Paolo Castorini has spent his life (beginning before puberty) dealing with girls, and later, women, usually in matters of the flesh. But later in life he begins to search for a deeper meaning to life. When his father is brought to his deathbed, Paolo (after making a pass at the dying man's nurse) is surprised to learn that the apparently staid, upright father had been unfaithful as a young man, as also Paolo's grandfather, and that such unfaithfulness had brought consequences both moral and medical.
