The Song of Love (Italian: La canzone dell'amore) is a 1930 Italian romance film directed by Gennaro Righelli and starring Dria Paola, Isa Pola and Elio Steiner. It was the first Italian talking film. Alessandro Blasetti's film Resurrection was actually shot first, but delays meant that it was not released until 1931. The film was first publicly screened on 7 October 1930 at the Supercinema in Rome. The story was based on a novella by Luigi Pirandello, In Silenzio. The film was shot at the Cines-Pittaluga studios in Rome in three different versions: Italian, French and German using different casts and directors.
