Starring Anamaria Vartolomei, Matt Dillon, Giuseppe Maggio

When promising young actress Maria Schneider (Anamaria Vartolomei) gets the lead in “Last Tango in Paris” alongside Marlon Brando (Matt Dillon), it seems like the opportunity of a lifetime. Until one day, when Brando and director Bernardo Bertolucci conspire to shoot a crucial sex scene as a harrowing assault. Lauded as a brave artistic breakthrough, it’s the beginning of a living hell for Maria.
