Capriccio, also released with the international titles Love & Passion and Capri Remembered, is an Italian erotic drama film directed by Tinto Brass. It is a liberal adaptation of the novel Le lettere da Capri by Mario Soldati.
Plot
Jennifer (Nicola Warren) and Fred (Andy J. Forest) are an American couple who met during their World War II service on the island of Capri. In the year 1947, they return to the island for their holiday and past memories as well as disappointments of their married life soon lead them to their former crushes on the island to whom they have been writing letters. Jennifer meets Ciro (Luigi Laezza), a womaniser waiter who deflowered her and has now become an affluent pimp while Fred finds prostitute Rosalba (Francesca Dellera). However, they are to realise that years have changed much more than they expected.
