L'ultimo amante (literally The Last Lover) is a 1955 Italian melodrama film directed by Mario Mattoli and starring Amedeo Nazzari and May Britt.[1] It was a remake of Mattoli's 1942 film Nothing New Tonight.[1] This version aptly concludes with the score of the famous prelude of La Traviata, by Giuseppe Verdi.
Plot
The police round up a group of prostitutes and bring them to the station.
