Of Life and Love
1954, Italian. Directed by Mario Soldati & Aldo Fabrizi & Luigi Zampa & Giorgio Pàstina.
A film made up of four episodes: a jar repairer gets trapped in a vat because of his hunch; a young unmarried mother is forced to beg to buy herself a fan; Rosario Chiarchiaro appears before a law court for casting spells; the discomfort of an overtight jacket gives a wedding witness the strength to persuade the bridegroom's reluctant parents to bless his union.
