What happens
Maddalena, also known as The Devil in Maddalena, is a 1971 drama film directed by Jerzy Kawalerowicz and starring Lisa Gastoni, Eric Woofe and Ivo Garrani. The film features a notable score by Ennio Morricone, including the composition "Chi Mai". A co-production between the Italian company Unitas Film and Yugoslavian company Bosna Film, it premiered in November 1971 in New York City, but its release in Italy was delayed until 1972 due to censorship issues.
