Event Description : "The White Sheik (Lo Sceicco Bianco)" Italian film screening with English Subtitles, as part of 'Double Bill' Series

Two young newlyweds from a provincial town, Wanda (Brunella Bovo) and Ivan Cavalli (Leopoldo Trieste), arrive in Rome for their honeymoon. Wanda is obsessed with the "White Sheik" (Alberto Sordi), the Rudolph Valentino-like hero of a soap opera photo strip and sneaks off to find him, leaving her conventional, petit bourgeois husband in hysterics as he tries to hide his wife's disappearance from his strait-laced relatives who are waiting to go with them to visit the Pope. The wife returns home only to find her husband having a romp with a prostitute. 
First film entirely directed by Fellini. Despite of the excellent performance of Sordi, this film was not a success, but was later re-evaluated and is now considered very rightly, a little classic.
