From a Roman Balcony

From a Roman Balcony (also known as Pickup in Rome and The Crazy Day) is a 1960 drama film directed by Mauro Bolognini. It is a co-production between Italy (where it was released as La giornata balorda) and France (where it is known as Ça s'est passé à Rome). The film is based on several tales by Alberto Moravia, who collaborated on the screenplay. The Italian theatrical release suffered several censorship problems, including the blocking of screenings, and a criminal complaint against director Bolognini and screenwriters Moravia and Pier Paolo Pasolini. The film was released on an Italian Region 2 DVD by A&R Productions in April 2014.
