Summer Night

Summer Night (Italian: Notte d'estate con profilo greco, occhi a mandorla e odore di basilico, also known as Summer Night with Greek Profile, Almond Eyes and Scent of Basil) is a 1986 Italian comedy film directed by Lina Wertmüller.

Despite Beppe’s dismissive attitude toward her, Fulvia is impressed by his physical beauty, his lack of submission, and savage defiance toward his bondage.

A few days later, Beppe manages to escape his chains, still handcuffed and blindfolded with a locked device, stumbling through the island wilderness, attempting to flee.

Turi and his guards recapture Beppe, and Fulvia determines that he needs a period of taming, restricted to bread and water, until he can again be approached to cooperate.

Meanwhile Fulvia takes off for a few weeks with her lover, whom she now finds obsequious in his constant devotion and sexual eagerness to please.

In the next scene, a helicopter hovers over the Sardinian island estate, and a team of commandos jumps out, capturing both Fulvia and Turi.
