Musings!

Rosalba Neri plays the wife of Coriolanus, played by Gordon Scott, in CORIOLANUS - HERO WITHOUT A COUNTRY (1964)

I like this movie. Directed by Giorgio Ferroni, it's a solid movie that's almost a full drama. There are action scenes in it but the focus is more on the drama. I like eveything about it even if, in some scenes, re-used scenes from Ferroni's other films make an appearance. The one part that's disappointing is Rosalba's role. Rosalba is always fun to watch but in this movie, she's barely there and barely used. HERCULES AGAINST MOLOCH (1962), also directed by Ferroni and also starring Scott and Rosalba, is a good film to compare with: Rosalba has a meaty role and she's good in it. I wonder why she would agree to star in this if she was just a wife with nothing to do. She's wasted. Anyone could have played this.

Note: Gordon's uniform differs from all others in the movie: his is much shorter while the majority of others are much longer; most go halfway way down to their knees. This is pretty much the same in all of his movies, or even other actors like Steve Reeves. 

Second note: The screenshot is from a nice HD copy from a streaming service in Italy. The re-used scenes look like second generation clips but the original scenes are crystal clear. It's not available anywhere on Blu-ray.
