Viaggio in Italia
Journey to Italy (Italian: Viaggio in Italia) is a 1954 Italian drama film directed by Roberto Rossellini, starring Ingrid Bergman and George Sanders. The film has English dialogue; the Italian version was originally cut. It is loosely based on the novel Duo by Colette.
Alex and Katherine Joyce (Sanders and Bergman) are a couple from England who have traveled to Italy to sell a large property near Naples that they have recently inherited. Alex is a workaholic businessman, given to brusqueness and sarcasm. Katherine is more sensitive, and the journey has evoked poignant memories of a poet friend, Charles Lewington, now deceased.
Within days of their arrival, the couple's relationship starts to disintegrate amid mutual misunderstandings and a degree of jealousy on both sides. Things become so strained that they agree to divorce, but following a visit to Pompeii they get caught up in a religious procession in Naples that—as it seems, miraculously—rekindles their love for each other.
