I love this clip from Sabato, domenica e lunedi [1990] in which Sofia Loren, as Rosa Priore, argues with other women about the best recipe for a ragù. It is not so far removed from what could happen in an Italian butcher's today....

When was this made? Sofia is in her prime here.
Hi, Lakeviewer. 1990.
Hi again. I saw her last night from THe Golden Globe Awards Ceremony. She looks frozen in time now.
Hi again, lakeviewer. I will look for that on youtube. Thanks.
It reminds me of what happened after my Uncles Funeral. My Aunt made her Pasta Gravy and Candy ( the lady no one likes but always shows up to make a grand appearance) brings a big pot of her Gravy. Well everyone was choosing my Aunts over Candy's , when my Aunts pot was getting low Candy added the remainder of my Aunts sauce to her own. It hit the fan then. You sonna ma bitch was said quite a few times. None of us were allowed to even speak to Candy after that...lol Italian women in my family are very territorial...smiles
I showed this to my husband because I couldn't quite make out everything the women were saying. He laughed so hard, but doesn't remember this movie. So glad you shared it here...now I want to find this film!
Hi, GCC. Thank you so much for sharing that funny and lovely story here. Glad your husband enjoyed it, Rowena. I want to find the film, too.
