A beautiful but poor young girl finds all the money and material goods she never had when she becomes the girlfriend of a crime boss, but soon learns that there is a price to be paid for that kind of life.
Directed by Giuliano Carnimeo, Anna: the Pleasure, the Torment leans on a strong ensemble — Edwige Fenech, Corrado Pani, Richard Conte — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1973.
