Set in 18th-century South America, The Golden Coach is a ravishing
comic fantasy filmed in Technicolor by director Jean Renoir. Camilla (Anna
Magnani), the leading actress in a touring theater troupe, catches the
eye of the Viceroy. Their romance causes a scandal, especially when
the Viceroy gives Camilla his royal coach, made of solid gold. The
Criterion edition is the English-language version of the film which
Renoir preferred.
