Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell (1968) is an Italian-American comedy directed by Melvin Frank. The film is set in a small Italian village during the 1960s and explores themes of love, deception, and the complexities of post-war relationships.
Plot:
The story revolves around Mrs. Campbell, a charming widow named Carla Campbell (played by Gina Lollobrigida), who runs a successful hotel in the town. She has a somewhat unusual past: during World War II, she had relationships with three different American soldiers, each of whom promised to marry her before leaving Italy. In the present day, she has raised her daughter, whom she has led to believe that each soldier is her father. As these three men unexpectedly reappear in the town, chaos and comedic situations ensue as they try to unravel the truth and confront their past, while Carla tries to keep her secret intact.
Main Characters:
Carla Campbell (Gina Lollobrigida) - The widow at the center of the plot, charming, resourceful, and determined to maintain the illusion for her daughter that each of the three American soldiers is her father.
Professor Edward McClellan (Peter Lawford) - One of the three American soldiers, now a distinguished professor, who is surprised to learn of his supposed fatherhood.
Colonel Jack Wheeler (Telly Savalas) - Another of the American soldiers, now a colonel, who returns to find that he may have fathered Carla's daughter.
Sergeant Al Manners (Phil Silvers) - The third soldier, a more comedic figure who also believes he is the father of Carla's daughter.
Adele (Andrea Dromm) - Carla's daughter, who is unaware of the identity of her real father and is caught in the comedic confusion.
