TCM Remembers Lina Wertmüller (1928 - 2021)

TCM Remembers legendary director Lina Wertmüller, a trailblazer who took on the long tradition of Italian comedy and successfully infused it with politics. In addition to becoming the first woman to receive an Oscar nomination for best director, Wertmüller’s films broke box office records in the U.S. for foreign films. Her legacy lives on in her vibrant and bold narratives which will never be forgotten.
