| Item Description: | Aspect ratio 1.33:1 Based on the story "Terminal station" by Cesare Zavattini Indiscretion of an American wife opens with Patti Page singing two songs, Autumn in Rome and Indiscretion Originally produced as motion picture in 1954 Special Features: commentary by film scholar Leonard Leff on Indiscretion of an American wife; original theatrical trailer; publicity sketches and original newspaper ads "The film's plot is simple; its production was not. The troubled collaboration between director Vittorio De Sica and producer David O. Selznick resulted in two cuts of the same film. De Sica's version, Terminal Station, was screened at a length of one-and-a-half hours, but after disappointing previews, Selznick severely re-edited it and changed the title to Indiscretion of an American Wife without De Sica's permission."--Container |
