 The Witches review / Le Streghe (1967) - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Mangano plays a superstar actress and model who travels to a mountain resort, only to find the well-to-do inhabitants have prejudices and preconceived notions about her based on her public persona.
The story is about a bored housewife (Mangano, of course), who tries in vain to get her husband to realize that he is not as romantic as he used to be.
It's not clear why Mangano is deserving of such a showcase for her talents, because she has only a modest appeal, but I suspect her producer husband is the solitary reason behind it.

 Guardian Unlimited Film | Features | The pin-up of protest
Even though Silvana Mangano has been dead for 14 years, no matter that she was a wife, a mother, a hard-working actress and an admired hostess on the international film scene, still there's only one picture of her that anyone would think of using.
It's the shot of Mangano, aged 18 or 19, standing in the flooded rice fields of the Po valley, her stockings kept aloft by her rich thighs, her shorts wet and tight, and her expressive breasts thrust towards the camera, full of socialist protest.
Mangano had another lead role in Robert Rossen's Mambo, shot in Italy, and she played both Penelope and Circe in her husband's lavish production of Ulysses (with Kirk Douglas in the title role).

Silvana Mangano, subject of Vezzoli's thirty-six portraits, was one of the most famous actresses of Italian cinema.
Famous for her mouth and for her eyebrows, Mangano appeals to Vezzoli not only as an actress, but as a noted embroiderer.
In the video she sleeps on a couch embroidered by Silvano Mangano, and dreams of being a disco diva dressed in a gown designed by Roberto Capucci, Mangano's couturier.

 Silvana Mangano
Though intended as a scathing indictment of harsh conditions endured by women laboring in Italy's rice fields, the film's enormous popularity was largely attributed to the erotic appeal of young Silvana Mangano.
The former Miss Rome became a star overnight for her sultry debut as an impoverished yet voluptuous laborer who turns down the chance to emigrate to a better life in South America in favor of a steamy affair with her best friend's lover.
Ironically, Marxist writer and director Giuseppe De Santis, one of the founders of Italy's post-World War II neorealist movement, virtually brought the genre to an end with Bitter Rice by demonstrating that sex was a far greater draw than social criticism.

Sultry, voluptuous Mangano is a penniless young woman who is seen by a wealthy nobleman, Rennie, at a party when she does a sizzling mambo dance, and he helps further her ambitions as a dancer by enrolling her in a dance troupe run by Winters.
She defers to Gassman, whose greedy instincts are heightened when he learns that Rennie is terminally ill. He encourages Mangano to marry Rennie and wait until he dies so that she can inherit his fortune and turn it over to him.
Mangano sizzles in her role as a sensuous dancer and reveals a stunning figure during her slit-skirt routines.

I remember my mother always talking about “the good movies they used to make in those days.” Her example always was Bitter Rice starring Silvana Mangano, a forgotten Italian singer and actress from the ‘40s and ‘50s.
I showed that section of the movie to my mother and to my amazement she began denying that the person she was seeing was Silvana Mangano herself!...
There was a kind of “zang” (meaning a pleasant sound of ‘chime’ in Persian) in Mangano’s voice that this singer’s voice lacks.

 Teorema (1968): Silvana Mangano, Terence Stamp, Massimo Girotti, Anne Wiazemsky - PopMatters Film Review
One after another, the mother (Silvana Mangano), daughter (Anne Wiazemsky), son (Andres Soublette), and servant (Laura Betti) succumb to his charms.
Mangano, wife of producer Dino de Laurentiis, starred in one of the primary documents of Italian neo-realism, Giuseppe de Santis' Bitter Rice (1949).
However much the camera lingers on Stamp's features, Mangano's heavily made up face, or the unembellished physique of Laura Betti, the characters remain corporeally opaque, more embodiments of ideas than urges and appetites.

Silvana Mangano plays Silvana, a buxom young woman who joins scores of other female laborers planting and tending rice in the fields of the Po Valley.
A trio of characters enter Silvanas life: a jewel thief who is on the lam from the authorities: his melancholy girlfriend; and a war-weary soldier who is at once unselfish and courtly, and filled with a loathing for authority.
These four people come together and what follows is a deeply involving and emotionally rich drama of exploitation, jealousy and betrayal.

Stamp goes to her, smiling his tolerant, sexy smile, the sun blaring behind him (at least Pasolini resists the temptation to have the sun shine straight out of Stamp's apparently all-healing bulge).
Speaking of images, Stamp's image is nowhere on the cover art; instead, Mangano is stretched out naked on the front.
