White Amazons

White Amazons (Italian: Amazzoni bianche) is a 1936 Italian comedy film directed by Gennaro Righelli and starring Paola Barbara, Luisa Ferida and Doris Duranti. Screwball in style, it is part of the tradition of schoolgirl comedies of the Fascist era.[1] It is set in a winter sports resort, where an all-female race with a prize of two hundred thousand lira for the winner provokes rivalry and confusions.

gollark: Why do people post long serious bits of text on, of all things, images on Instagram or whatever?
gollark: In my opinion school is mostly kind of terrible.
gollark: > resisting gives the cops no right to kill an otherwise unarmed person<@528315825803755559> I agree. I'd really expect higher standards of not arbitrarily killing people. The UK seems to have this problem... less, at least?
gollark: Then you are not an idiot. You win a melon! 🍈
