    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Almost all of the actors were dubbed, including the stars Silvana Mangano (by Lydia Simoneschi) and Vittorio Gassman (by Gualtiero De Angelis). A curiosity: Character actress Tina Lattanzi lent her voice to French actress Gaby Morlay but as she appears in the film herself, she was in turn dubbed by Giovanna Scotto.
    • Goofs
      When Anna is performing "El negro zumbon", she is initially shown dancing in a medium distance shot and her arms are fully outstretched. As she begins to sing there is a cut to a closeup and her right hand is now directly in front of her face.

      Featured in Demonios en el jardín (1982)

    finally, saw it again!!! Brava!!Mangano!!
    Finally found a vhs copy of Anna(1951) via Movie Classics...Bad copy chopped..sniped together but the essence of this sultry exciting Italian neo classic film is still there...Over 50 yrs since I first saw this film in the Regent Theatre in Newark,NJ with my family..but those images remain...Anna the Nun.,Anna the nurse, Anna the night club samba singer dancer, Anna the whore who loves one man & sensually lusts after another!!!!The songs "Anna" sung by Mangano(#1 Hit record) & also "Non Dimenticar" are unforgettable.. beautiful Mangano, the face of Italy has made some US films notably, Ulysseus,5 Branded Women, & The Tempest, but will be remembered by aging audiences as the supreme siren of neo classic Italian films, Bitter Rice,ANNA, & Gold of Naples etc...dont miss..& lets hope we get a better copy!!!
