La vedovella (1965)
Susy, a call girl from Milan, receives a castle as a gift from one of her old clients, Baron Colletta di Sant'Omero. When she arrives, she is mistaken for the widow of the deceased squire and is immediately surrounded by the mayor, members of the town council, and other people who all aspire to take over the dilapidated property for little money, whose future is guaranteed by the industrial expansion of the Calabrian village. Susy realizes the situation and astutely takes advantage of it. She manages to obtain the unanimous vote of the city council against the expropriation of her land, and, having duped all her suitors, she devotes herself to Corrado, a technician at some important factories in the area.
