Love and Death (1932)
A curse has been placed upon the Agro family because of the indiscretions of its male ancestors. The present-day Agro male, Reggero, carries on with many of the women in his village, until one day one of his lovers dies after confessing her affair with him. The girl's father sets out to kill Ruggero for "soiling" his daughter. This Italian-language drama was shot in northern New Jersey with members of a Sicilian-American theater company. It was made for the large Italian-speaking population of the northeastern US.
