Editorial Reviews

(2-CD box set with one DVD and hardcover book) She's best remembered as the voluptuous, jet-haired siren of many 1960s Italian sex comedies, but Sophia Loren is an international star and a talented actress. To the surprise of many, she's also a recording artist. This set contains her complete recordings on two CDs, including the classic duets with Peter Sellers (which became huge hits in the U. K. ), and a few other duets with Peter O'Toole and Paolo Bacilieri. The set also includes one DVD containing 38 movie trailers, as well as a hardcover book detailing her incredible movie career, poster reproductions, and lobby cards from Italy, the U. S. , Belgium, Germany and several other countries.

For the price, this set doesn`t really offer much to U.S. customers except a very thick book full of foreign movie posters (mostly German) and pictures. There are two musical CDs most of which have already been issued and one DVD which boasts a lot of trailers from her films, but only a couple are in English. Unless you speak German, I`d advise you to pass on this one.

This terrific set of "Sophia Siren Songs" is a unique tribute to her, and a surprising cornucopia of offerings. The music is a mixed bag, but none of the selections are without interest, and some are quite extraordinary - as sonically sound as anything Marilyn Monroe or Bardot ever recorded, if you're into sexpot pop. This is an expensive set, but it's well worth the price for the sumptuous hardcover book accompanying the 2 CDs. There are over 300 pages of photos and color poster art from all her films. Also included is a DVD with varying quality, mostly European, trailers from all her films - a very nice addition. What you get is a fine quality collector's item - a wonderful souvenir for Sophia fans. For me, she's the screen's supreme sexpot - and one of it's finest actors, too!
