Cybill Shepherd stars as Daisy Miller, a beautiful, young American being introduced into European society in the 1800s, whose headstrong ways end in tragedy. Frederick Winterbourne (Barry Brown) is immediately drawn to the fetching Daisy, though her youthful high spirits and American frankness clash with Continental etiquette: she's a chatterbox who won't let anyone get a word in edgewise, she's extremely belligerent, and she insists on keeping company with the suave Italian Mr. Giovanelli (Duilio Del Prete) without a chaperone. Naive, trusting, and unaware of the proper behavior, Daisy can't understand why the gentry are shocked by her innocent actions. Cloris Leachman stars as Daisy's mother, Mrs. Ezra B. Miller, and Eileen Brennan appears as Mrs. Walker, the hub of Rome's opulent high society. Directed by Peter Bogdanovich (THE LAST PICTURE SHOW, PAPER MOON), the film is based on the Henry James novel of the same name and was filmed on location in Rome and Switzerland. [More]
