| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatPassion of Love is a brilliant comedy of manners. |
| Boston GlobeBruce McCabePassione d'Amore is frequently an astonishing, extraordinary film. It demands to be seen. |
| User ReviewPrivate UWhere The Phantom Of The Opera and Beauty and the Beast failed.....this movie is actually realistic without the sappy crap from POTO and the contrived happy ending from BatB. |
| User ReviewRoberto LThe big draw here is Valeria D'Obici's performance as Fosca, the woman whose passione d'amore drives the whole story. The handsome officer who is her love object is predictably shallow, but stay with the movie and see what happens. I looked at this movie in hopes of seeing Laura's Antonelli, if you know what I mean, but now I don't even recall her performance or whether she had a customary nude scene. The movie's all about Fosca, and it's powerful. |
