Movie Profile
Captain Corelli's Mandolin
Summary: Captain Antonio Corelli is an irreverent Italian officer in charge of a garrison that's occupying a small Greek island. He spots a beautiful young local woman, Pelagia, and it's lust at first sight. Pegalia has never had exposure to foreigners in her young life, as the island has remained almost untouched for centuries. But everything is charged differently during wartime, and Pelagia soon has to make a difficult choice: either she sticks to her old life and political allegiances, or gives everything up for a love that she's not certain can last.

Synopsis: Captain Corelli's Mandolin is based on a popular novel by Louis de Bernires, is directed by Shakespeare in Love's John Madden, and stars the ever-engaging Nicholas Cage and Penelope Cruz. The movie's set during World War II, on the small Greek island of Cephallonia. Cage plays Captain Antonio Corelli, an Italian officer in charge of a garrison that's occupying the small island. Irreverant and witty, he spots a beautiful young local woman, Pelagia, and it's lust at first sight. Pelagia has never had exposure to foreigners in her young life, as the island has remained almost untouched for centuries. But suddenly, with Cephallonia invaded, a whole new world, both good and bad, is opened up. Pelagia has a fianc? who has gone to fight the Italians in the Greek army, and while he's gone, Pegalia slowly opens up to Corelli, and falls in love. But everything is charged differently during wartime, and Pelagia has to make a difficult choice: either she sticks to her old life and political allegiances, or gives everything up for a love that she's not certain can last.
