Malaspina is a 1947 Italian melodrama film directed by Armando Fizzarotti and starring Vera Rol, Aldo Bufi Landi and Rino Genovese. It is a melodrama, based on a popular song of the same name. Its story of female wrongdoing and ultimate redemption was characteristic of Neapolitan-style cinema. A young woman promises to be faithful to her lover when he goes off to fight in the Second World War. However, in his absence she becomes a prostitute and takes up with a notorious criminal. When her real love returns he kills her new boyfriend. Deeply ashamed of her conduct, she becomes a nun.

The film revived the Naples film-industry, which had largely disappeared during the Fascist era when Italian filmmaking was concentrated in Rome. The film was released in the United States, where it proved popular with Italian-American audiences.
