Audience Member Melina Mercouri is the fierce fire of classic tragedies in Greek cinema, the fire that can only be barely controlled with dynamite! the character of Stella has all the sensual and liberal features that seduced the Italians in the 60s and that would be easily banned in Egypt back in the 50s under the direction of Youssef Chahine. Even so, Kakogiannis' statement is a touching tragedy that accentuates the true meaning of female freedom with honesty in time of man's dominion in traditions such as marriage. Now, I may even be generalizing a societal aspect that I do not know that deeply especially in Europe; however, Stella's surrounding environment speaks for itself. 99/100 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent movie, Foundas is great, Melina is Goddess..!!!!!
