Wiki.
The Beautiful Summer (Italian: La bellissima estate) is a 1974 Italian melodrama film directed by Sergio Martino. It stars Alessandro Cocco, Senta Berger and John Richardson.
The film is part of the genre of melodramatic films known as "lacrima movies" or "tearjerker movies". It has been best remembered for the soundtrack piece "Il barone rosso" by Luciano Michelini, which would eventually become the theme song of the comedy show, Curb Your Enthusiasm. It was originally released in the United States as Summer to Remember, with other titles such as Smile of Love and Never Ending Love.
