The Adventures of Roberto Rossellini: His Life and FilmsRoberto Rossellini (1906 1977) movie maker, bon vivant, and passionate intellectual was the key figure of Italian neo realism, the godfather of the French New Wave, and a television pioneer; the maker of such classics as Open City, Paisan, Stromboli, Flowers of St. Francis, Voyage in Italy, and Louis XIV; Anna Magnani's lover; Ingrid Bergman's husband; and Isabella Rossellini's father.

Roberto Rossellini (1906-1977)--movie-maker, bon vivant, and passionate intellectual--was the key figure of Italian neo-realism, the godfather of the French New Wave, and a television pioneer; the maker of such classics as Open City, Paisan, Stromboli, Flowers of St. Francis, Voyage in Italy, and Louis XIV; Anna Magnani's lover; Ingrid Bergman's husband; and Isabella Rossellini's father. Continually enmeshed in controversy, perhaps no other figure in the history of world cinema has been so reviled--and so revered. Tag Gallagher's masterful biography of Rossellini, the first in any language, was fifteen years in the making. It is the result of assiduous research, lengthy interviews with almost everyone who knew him, and investigations into the making and reception of his films. The cast of characters includes Vittorio Mussolini, Il Duce's son and Rossellini's Fascist-era producer; Howard Hughes, who produced Stromboli and then, in a fit of jealousy over Ingrid Bergman, butchered its American release; and dozens of other people. Combining a portrait of a dynamic and daring man with brilliant discussions of his work, Tag Gallagher tells a story as rich and moving as Rossellini's miraculous films.Binding Type: Paperback

Fabulous!
Special Size: 19" Capri with Pockets, Size: X-Small, Color: Flamingo Pink
These are AMAZING! Just received my first two pairs ( black and flamingo pink) and I am back ordering more! They are so smooth and soft and feel great! They fit so well-not to restrictive but have strength enough in the Lycra to look amazing (not the thin, flimsy, cheap tights/leggings). I live in the Sunshine State so I can wear these to workout and run indoor or outdoor practically year round. I prefer this shorter length because they are cooler to wear in the 95° heat 100% humidity. So hoping they make these in the green color and the bright blue color that is available in the full length active leggings! These are my new favorite crop active leggings! Please, please, please make more colors! Amazon, these are fabulous quality and style and at this price point, I'd buy every color and pattern available (I just don't do flesh tones).

Super comfortable fabric and launders well.
Special Size: 19" Capri with Pockets, Size: Large, Color: Taupe
Super soft fabric with a nice high waist that does not seem to rolll down when exercising, Yeah!
As always I love a good cell phone pocke. After the comfortable fit I also ordered the Slate Blue version.
BTW, I have had 2 knee replacements so this below the knee length is a perfect solution for my vanity issues!.

Great product and quality!
Special Size: 19" Capri with Pockets, Size: Medium, Color: Slate Grey
I got the matching sports bra for these and I love the set together and honestly really liked the shorter leggings. The quality is incredible and super comfortable. For the amount I spent on this set it was absolutely worth it. The material is definitely thick enough so they are squat proof but they fit a little loose. I think I would size down one size if I bought another color in these. Overall great product!

THESE
Special Size: 19" Capri without Pockets, Size: X-Small, Color: Navy
I love these leggings! Purchased Navy seriously I have had a gazillion brands, styles types, ie. flare, etc. over my legging years of which there are many. These are the best so far. Perfect for ME. I am 112lbs. 5'1" so not 'normal human size' as my kids say. The small is perfect. Hits 'capri' length on my smaller frame a little longer for me so yay for that too. These are super good quality and I am picky about leggings. They are better than Costco WHAT? Yes they are. **NOTE: These do NOT have a phone pocket which I was also looking for. I am over phone pockets for now. These you could dress up for a night out. Buying every color. The price point is low-so were my expectations. But VOILA! These were a super surprise. Happiness is my Amazon delivery human.
