    Vaghe stelle dell'Orsa is a 1965 Italian film directed by Luchino Visconti. It was released as Sandra (Of a Thousand Delights) in the USA and as Of These Thousand Pleasures in the UK.

    Plot

    Visconti's retelling of the Electra story starts with Sandra/Electra (Claudia Cardinale) returning to her ancestral home in Italy - and reviving an intimate involvement with her brother (Sorel) which troubles her naive husband (Michael Craig) - on the eve of an official ceremony commemorating the death of her Jewish father in a Nazi concentration camp. As ever with Visconti, he is ambivalently drawn to the decadent society he is ostensibly criticising; and Armando Nannuzzi's camera lovingly caresses the creaking old mansion, set in a landscape of crumbling ruins, where the incestuous siblings determine to wreak revenge on the mother (Bell) and stepfather (Ricci) who supposedly denounced their father.

    The title, culled from the poem "Le ricordanze" by Giacomo Leopardi, could be translated as 'Glimmering stars of the Great Bear', and has a strong resonance with the movie's plot:

    Sandra (Barry Manilow song)

    Sandra is a song that was originally recorded by Barry Manilow on his album, Barry Manilow II in 1974. The song was also recorded by Dusty Springfield on her album It Begins Again.

    Sandra

    by: Barry Manilow

    She's a great little housewife
    Though sometimes she talks like a fool
    But she helps at the store in the holiday rush
    And she picks up the kids after school
    And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home
    And she changes from mother to wife
    'Til she feels the words hanging between them
    And she hangs by her words to her life
    She says, ?I swear I love my husband, I love my kids
    I wanted to be like my mother
    But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
    Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself?
    There's so many things that she wishes
    She don't even know what she's missin'
    And that's how she knows that she missed
    And she's a sweetheart, except when she's moody
    It's hard to get through to her then
    Depressed for a while when the youngest was born
    Oh, but that happens now and again
    She might take a drink with the housework
    Or when Michael's kept late at the shop
    A martini or two before dinner
    But she always knows when to stop
    She says, ?God, I love my husband and I love my kids
    And though I wanted to be like my mother
    But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
    Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself?
    There's so many things that she wishes
    She don't even know what she's missin'
    And that's how she knows that she missed
    Oh, they used to hold hands at the movies
    Now it's seldom if ever they go
    Once you've paid for the sitter and parkin' the car
    There's no money left for the show
    She was doing the dishes
    When a glass fell and broke on the tile
    And she cut her wrist quite by mistake
    It was real touch and go for a while
    She says, ?God, I love my husband and I love my kids
    You know I wanted to be like my, my mother
    But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
    Oh, there might have been time to be me for myself, for myself"
    There's so many things that she wishes
    She don't even know what she's missin'
