- A respectable, convent-raised woman is haunted by the memory of being raped as a teenager. But when her grown daughter returns from school, her life begins to unravel in monumentally surprising ways.
- In the early part of this century, Maddelena a teenage Italian girl, is attacked whilst walking in the woods. The attack leaves her mentally scarred and our story flashes forward to the 1940s where Maddelena is still troubled. She disappears one day and her daughter vows to find her.—Col Needham <col@imdb.com>
- A lurid tale of sex and psychosis, Madonna of the Seven Moons, directed by Arthur Crabtree, is among the wildest of the Gainsborough melodramas. Set in Italy, it begins as a comparatively sedate tale about a respectable, convent-raised woman (Phyllis Calvert) who is haunted by the memory of being raped as a teenager. But when her grown daughter returns from school, her life begins to unravel in monumentally surprising ways.
- The rape she suffered as a teenager continues to haunt young Italian girl Maddalena (Phyllis Calvert), so much so that she develops a split personality. Her double life as the wife of a successful wine merchant and a Gypsy woman leads her into a treacherous relationship with a criminal ringleader (Stewart Granger) preying on tourists visiting the city of Florence.
- The teenage girl grows up to marry, have a family and live a respectable, socially acceptable life. EXCEPT, at certain intervals in that life, the early trauma produces amnesia. She is no longer the respectable married woman, but a gypsy possessed by a wild, free-living spirit. The catalyst for these strange interludes is a pair of golden earrings with seven dangling moons.—Blanca Burton <divanet@zoom.com>
