In one of the most powerful performances of his illustrious career, Yves Montand stars as Squarcio, a fisherman struggling to support his family. This moving and unforgettable debut feature by film great Gillo Pontecorvo (The Battle of Algiers and Burn!) is set in a tiny sun-drenched Italian village on the blue waters of the Adriatic. Costarring Alida Valli (The Third Man) and Francisco Rabal (Viridiana), The Wide Blue Road is powered by magnificent acting, extraordinary cinematography and a searing finale.
Montand´s work in The Wide Blue Road is astonishing for its range and subtlety and ranks with his best work in Wages of Fear, Z and Jean de Florette. Oscar-winning director Jonathan Demme has written, "The Wide Blue Road is enormously gripping and entertaining, as well as being early undeniable proof of Pontecorvo´s and Montand´s greatness."
