Donne nel mito: Anna Magnani a Hollywood recounts the American period of the great actor’s career through the words of her son Luca, of the most important of Italian press agents Enrico Lucherini, of Anna Magnani’s biographer Matilde Hockhofler and of Caterina D’Amico, daughter of the legendary screenwriter Suso Cecchi D’ Amico, a close friend of Anna Magnani’s.
