Giacomo Casanova: Childhood and Adolescence(Film, 1969)

Giacomo Casanova: Childhood and Adolescence (Italian: Infanzia, vocazione e prime esperienze di Giacomo Casanova, veneziano, lit. 'Childhood, Vocation, and First Experience of Giacomo Casanova, Venetian'), internationally released as Casanova: His Youthful Years, is a 1969 Italian comedy film directed by Luigi Comencini. It tells the youth of Giacomo Casanova, who, after an unhappy childhood and early ecclesiastical activity in Venice, became an abbot and abandoned his vocation for the love of a countess. Despite the plot, more than a portrait of Casanova, the film is more of a vivid fresco of the Venetian society of the time. ()
