Red Love (Italian: Amore rosso - Marianna Sirca) is a 1952 Italian crime melodrama film directed by Aldo Vergano and starring Marina Berti, Massimo Serato and Guido Celano. It was shot at the Cinecittà Studios in Rome. The film's sets were designed by the art director Alberto Boccianti. It is an adaptation of the 1915 Sardinian-set novel Marianna Sirca by Grazia Deledda and is sometimes also known by this title. Location shooting took place around Aggius and Tempio in Gallura rather than the Nuoro setting of the novel. It was not a commercial success on its first release.
