I Married You for Fun
Monica Vitti: La Modernista
June 6 - 19, 2025
A delightful diversion after her string of weighty collaborations with Antonioni, this late-’60s romantic comedy stars Monica Vitti as a slightly whacky girl who meets cute with a bourgeois lawyer at a bohemian bacchanal and rapidly marries him.
A delightful diversion after her string of weighty collaborations with Antonioni, this late-’60s romantic comedy presents another side of Monica Vitti. She stars here as Giuliana, the slightly whacky girl with whom bourgeois lawyer Pietro (Giorgio Albertazzi) meets cute at a bohemian bacchanal. Just as quickly, the two get married, setting the stage for a humorous study of then-contemporary romance and the state of sexual politics in Italy. Something of a time capsule, I Married You for Fun contributed significantly to Vitti branching out from the inscrutable Antonioni talisman to becoming more synonymous with Italian cinema in the 1960s.
