A blistering satire of Italy in the 1970s, "The Seduction of Mimi" is a raucous sex comedy that brought international fame to director Lina Wertmuller ("Swept Away") and takes aim at a corrupt government, compromised labor leaders and the Neanderthal sexual politics of men in power, with uproarious results.
