The only people in the entire town on her side are her elderly father who teaches latin at the school, and Renato (Giuseppe Sulfaro) a shy 12 year old boy for whom Malèna is the ideal woman. When he is sent off the fight in the war, her beauty and aloof manner keeps her separate from the local populace: the men don't hide their desire for her which enrages the women. In 1941, Maddalena Scordia, known simply as Malèna, arrives in Castelcuto, a small town in Sicily, the new wife of a local lieutenant. Spoilers abound in this review, so watch out!!! These two were united as I watched the 2000 movie Malèna. I've written before about how I love Monica Bellucci in a totally lesbian way as well as my hopelessly inept attempt at learning italian.
