Scandal threatens the life and career of famed Italian composer Giacomo Puccini when his wife publicly accuses him of having an affair with their maid.
Produced in Italy in breathtaking Technicolor this biographical story of Puccini (played by L'avventura's Gabriele Ferzetti) spans his creative life from early student days to the height of success including his early flop Madama Butterfly and his incomplete Turandot. Along the way he encounters three women who change his life including a sexy beautiful singer (Two for the Road's Nadia Gray) whom he drops for a small town girl (Sirocco's Marta Toren) and a servant girl who commits suicide over him. Well-selected excerpts from Manon La Boheme Madama Butterfly and Turandot are featured along with other Puccini music including the voice of Beniamino Gigli. Sets costumes and production values are first class all sumptuously filmed by Claude Renoir.
