Italian drama. AKA Outside.
A writer ends up in prison for a crazy and unexpected act, where she meets with some young inmates. Once out, the writer and the other women maintain their friendship, an authentic bond that no one else will be able to understand.
This is, more or less, a true story. It’s about incidents in the life of the Italian author and actress Goliarda Sapienza, whose life and whose family deserve to get a complete biography and a mini-series. (See her Wikipedia page for details.) Fuori is adapted most directly from “L’università di Rebibbia,” an account of her time in prison, and “Le Certezze del dubbio,” in which she described the transition from prison to life outside for some women she met in Rebibbia Prison.
(I suppose it’s always my job to inject a note of reality into the myth-making. Sapienza spent all of five days behind bars, despite the fact that she had committed a robbery! If an obscure poor person had done this, it might have meant a long imprisonment. If Amanda Knox had done this, she’d probably still be breaking rocks in the prison yard.)
Sapienza was on the fringes of fame during her life, but she achieved posthumous acclaim for her novel “L’arte della gioia,” which was recently adapted into a mini-series on Sky Atlantic. Valeria Golino, who plays Sapienza in Fuori, was the co-director and one of the writers for that series, which featured quite a bit of nudity. (That link also includes a lot of info about the series and the source novel.)
Valeria Golino turns 60 next month, but she’s showing the young ‘uns how to do it!
Also topless in the film, for much too short a time in my opinion, is the beautiful Matilda de Angelis.
And for good measure, the two women were topless together as well

She still looks great.
Abondanza! She looks fantastic
On “The Morning Show”, clothed for 8 episodes.
At 59 years old she is hawt. She just made it to the 40 club. First nudes in Little Flames (1985) and now those. Eat Italian. It keeps you young.
The olive scene in Hot Shots was so erotic.
Hey Scoop, this is off topic but….is there anyway to search the comments section(s) on this site by commenter? In other words if I remember who commented about something, but I can’t recall what thread it was, or if I just want to look for my old comments, is there anyway to do that?
No. That function is not native to WordPress. Some plug-ins allow that, but they are not free and are primarily designed for sites where comments are the main purpose, so I’ve never considered adding that capability.
