Swept Away... By an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August

Lina Wertmüller, 1974
R; 116 minutes; Italian with English subtitles

Class warfare hits the high seas in this Italian comedy about Gennarino (Giancarlo Giannini), a long-suffering crew member who works on a rich couple's yacht. The wife, Raffaela (Mariangela Melato), verbally abuses Gennarino and regularly insults his communist views. But when a day trip leaves the pair stranded at sea, they wash up on a deserted island and Raffaela is, suddenly, no longer the one in control. The role reversal leads to an unexpected and contentious love affair.

Kind Hearts and Coronets

Robert Hamer, 1949
104 minutes

When his mother eloped with an Italian opera singer, Louis Mazzini (Dennis Price) was cut off from her aristocratic family. After the family refuses to let her be buried in the family mausoleum, Louis avenges his mother's death by attempting to murder every family member (all played by Alec Guinness) who stands between himself and the family fortune. But when he finds himself torn between his longtime love (Joan Greenwood) and the widow of one of his victims (Valerie Hobson), his plans go awry.

Three Men and a Cradle

Coline Serrau, 1985
PG-13; 106 minutes; French with English subtitles

When a baby is left on their doorstep, hard-partying bachelors Pierre (Roland Giraud), Jacques (André Dussollier), and Michel (Michel Boujenah), experience a serious lifestyle change. Instead of carousing until dawn and chasing women, they're now changing diapers and learning the ins and outs of fatherhood. The baby's mother—one of Jacques' many conquests—has flown to the United States. In the meantime, the trio must protect the child from a mix-up with some drug runners.

Although he can't change history, Tim resolves to improve his life by getting a girlfriend.
