In his original documentary, Francesco Patierno follows the rivalry of two competing film productions that employ the famous actresses, Anna Magnani and Ingrid Bergman. Simultaneously, the two of them fall into a love triangle with the famous neo-realist director, Roberto Rossellini, who directs one of the films during this scandal. The documentary cleverly combines well-known film scenes of these renowned actresses with archive material, which is completed with anonymous commentary. It thus both reveals and helps to create the scandalous show of the international love affair of the 1950s. (Febiofest)

The giants of this era Ingrid Bergman and Anna Magnani have not left their mark on me yet, even though I’ve been familiar with them. So now I was curious about what this documentary would come up with. And it didn’t come up with anything at all. A random assortment of footages and movie clips is complemented by a dull narrative, which most certainly doesn’t provide me with any reason to start being interested in these actresses.

One of the weakest behind-the-scenes documentaries ever made. Changing partners (including those in marriages with other people) is unfortunately a routine part of the development of interpersonal relationships, and there is nothing unusual about it. This is where the connection between the film's cheating wife Magnani (Vulcano) and new partner Bergman (Stromboli) is supposedly found. And that's it. There’s nothing worth talking about. We don't learn anything special about the films, or the actresses, or Rossellini. Even a simple Wiki entry conveys more than this pseudo-documentary.

Rather than calling it a documentary, it's more appropriate to talk about it as a collage, where this film is composed of shots titled "volcano" which tell the stories of film personalities, such as Ingrid Bergman, Anna Magnani, or Roberto Rossellini. As a collage, it definitely works much better than as a documentary film. It really doesn't say much.
