A Night Full of Rain (1978)
Directed by Lina Wertmüller
When romantic journalist Paolo rescues American photographer Lizzy from a scuffle in an Italian village, his efforts at romance lead nowhere. But when they meet again in San Francisco, Paolo succeeds in wooing her. Can their love overcome the differences between the traditional Italian Communist and the modern, liberated American woman that threaten to tear the two apart?

What critics compared A Night Full of Rain to
One of my favorite filmmakers is Marxist feminist Lina Wertmüller, whose 1970s art-house films like A Night Full of Rain and Seven Beauties have in mind the fraught dynamics of gender relations, communism, and liberal feminism’s limitations.
