Paramount Presents ... Tonight starring Anna Magnani Burt Lancaster
Anna Magnani , passionate, tender, wise-cracking, in the role that won her an Academy Award. Tennessee Williams wrote The Rose Tattoo for her, first as a stage play and then as a film. Magnani's high-voltage performance electrified Broadway and cinema audiences, making this one of his most successful works.
Serafina, having made a religion of her marriage, abruptly discovers that her dead husband was unfaithful and a crook. On the same day, she meets Alvaro, an amiable oaf determined to love her.
