That said, the install/upgrade was the easiest I've done with any software since I started messing with computers in the late 70's. Windows has always tried to be too much of a swiss army knife if you ask me. I took the leap and while I'm still adapting and there are things they changed that didn't need changing and some things they only made a bit worse. I reluctantly moved to Win 10 Pro I was plenty comfortable with Win 7 Pro and being retired now I had no real need for any more power or bells and whistles but it was obvious that 7 was falling behind on the web. I date from the CPM days so I've done my share. I started with Winodws 1.0 back in 1986 and this is by far the easiest install I've every done.

The English subtitles are very clear and easy to read so.what are you waiting for? Read full review You will hear in this film the ever popular "Sleep Walk" (Santo & Johnny) as well as other great jazz music. Please do not miss "Adua and her friends." The Blu-ray technology has improved the sometimes somber black and white cinematography and done wonders for the audio. have been getting great credits and international attention for decades but I consider that Antonio Pietrangeli deserves to be up there with the best directors besides being a terrific screenwriter. The legendary Domenico Modugno plays himself and sings a song as a customer in Adua' s restaurant.įamous Italian directors like Rossellini, Fellini, De Sica, Pasolini, etc. The rest of the cast is also brilliant including the always great Marcello Mastroianni in a guest spot as a cynical used car salesman. Everybody should watch this fascinati ng film which features a great script and unforgettable heart-rendering performances by Madame Signoret, the enchanting Sandra Milo, the magnificent Emmanuelle Riva and the charming Gina Rovere. Of course things get complicated later on but I don´t want to give it all away.

The surprise is that the restaurant becomes a huge success by the excellent cuisine cooked and served by the four women. The business enterprise is just a front so that Adua and her friends can proceed with their prostitution activities. Middle aged Adua (Simone Signoret) convinces three of her younger colleagues to pull together their resources and open a restaurant on the outskirts of the city. The authorities gave ladies of the night the opportunity of a fresh start by destroying all records of their prostitution activities. Adua e le compagne (Adua and friends) tells the story of four prostitutes displaced by a law that forced the shutdown of brothels in 1959 Italy.
