Girl of the Golden West (Italian:Una signora dell'ovest) is a 1942 Italian western film directed by Carl Koch and starring Michel Simon, Isa Pola and Rossano Brazzi. It is based on a novel by Pierre Benoit. It was made at the Scalera Studios in Rome, and on location around Ciociaria. The film's title alludes to the opera The Girl of the Golden West by Giacomo Puccini, but is not an adaptation of it. It was one of only a handful of Westerns to be made during the silent and Fascist eras, in a genre in which Italy later became famous.

Synopsis

Arianna, an Italian actress, joins a caravan heading into the American West with her companion Diego. Diego is eventually killed by a local villain. Arianna falls in love with the villain without realising that he is the murderer.

Rome, juin 1800. Alors que l’issue de la bataille de Marengo est encore incertaine le comte Palmieri est exécuté sur la terrasse du château Saint-Ange. Un autre jacobin, Angelotti, est libéré par ses compagnons mais, ne pouvant passer les portes de la ville, il se réfugie, avec l’aide sa soeur, la marquise Attavanti, dans la chapelle familiale à Sant’Andrea della Valle où Mario Cavaradossi est en train de peindre une Madone en s’inspirant des traits de la marquise qui vient régulièrement prier dans l’église. Cette ressemblance suscite la jalousie de son amante Tosca, célèbre cantatrice qui doit chanter le soir même lors d’un concert devant la reine et vient voir le peintre entre deux répétitions avec le Maestro Paisiello. Cavaradossi parvient à cacher Angelotti dans sa villa hors les murs mais Scarpia, chef de la police secrète, espère utiliser la jalousie de Tosca pour retrouver les traces du fugitif.

He finds the criminal, a man named Joseph Palermo, and escorts him back to Europe, only to lose him in the capital city of Valletta in Malta.
