"There are three editions of Stromboli.
The first released was in the US by RKO, which reduced it to 82 mins, added a voice-over changed the editing, etc. All against RR's will. So forget about this one.
The next version was Rossellini's own English-language edition, variously cited between 102 and 107 minutes, but all the same version. It was shot with most of the people speaking English. And this was distributed internationally.
About a year later, Rossellini released an Italian dubbing just for Italy (but with Bergman's own voice), which altered the end and reduced the running time to about 97 minutes."

marvelous, transcendent and redemptive. If you've ever been a stranger in a strange land, there is lots to relate to here

Poorly written, and poorly acted. A thread-bare plot with paper thin characters who have no emotional depth.
Great fishing scene though.
