NOTES

It is not the first time Sophia plays her mother in a film. In 1980, NBC produced Sophia Loren: Her Own Story, a documentary film in which
Sophia recalls the postwar years and her childhood in Pozzuoli. In this
first biographical effort, Sophia played both her mother and herself.

Margareth Madè, a Sicilian-born actress and model, was chosen in June
2009 to play Sophia's role following a publicity campaign to find the best Sophia double.
