rice girl (1956)


aka La Risaia.
"I'm here to plant rice and to make some money."
The lives and loves surrounding a rice farm, and its migrant workers, in rural Italy. The owner of the farm starts to take an interest in one of the workers (Elsa Martinelli), as does his spoilt son and a poor car mechanic.
The striking use of Eastmancolor provides a vibrant backdrop to a mildly diverting romantic drama.
