Stage Fright is a 1950 British thriller film directed and produced by Alfred Hitchcock that stars Jane Wyman, Marlene Dietrich, Michael Wilding and Richard Todd.

"Stage Fright" is the title track of the Band's third album, "Stage Fright".
 It features Rick Danko on lead vocals and was written by Robbie Robertson.
 According to author Barney Hoskyns, Robertson originally intended it to be sung by Richard Manuel but it became clear that the song was better suited to Danko's "nervous, tremulous voice."
Stage fright or performance anxiety is the anxiety, fear, or persistent phobia which may be aroused in an individual by the requirement to perform in front of an audience, whether actually or potentially (for example, when performing before a camera).
 In the context of public speaking, this may precede or accompany participation in any activity involving public self-presentation.
 In some cases stage fright may be a part of a larger pattern of social phobia (social anxiety disorder), but many people experience stage fright without any wider problems.
 Quite often, stage fright arises in a mere anticipation of a performance, often a long time ahead.
 It has numerous manifestations: stuttering, tachycardia, tremor in the hands and legs, sweaty hands, facial nerve tics, dry mouth, and dizziness.
"La Sciantosa" is an Italian TV movie produced by RAI television.
 (Even though, it was filmed in color, back in 1970, RAI's shows were still being shown in black and white, since they didn't convert to color TV until 1977.)
 Anna Magnani played a faded "sciantosa" (i.e., variety show diva), Flora, whose career has declined.
 When she receives an invitation to sing at an army base, she thinks she's singing to the front line soldiers, so she accepts the invitation.
 She and her assistant, Cristina, played by Rosita Pisano, are met at the train station by Tonino, a young soldier, played by Massimo Ranieri.
 He then drives the ladies to the army base, and then introduces them to his misfit band of musicians, including a very annoying horn player, who almost causes Flora not to want to sing for the soldiers, and a guitar player, who ruins a march song by blowing a kazoo at the end.
 Flora's set to take the stage, draped in an Italian flag and wearing a crown.
 But when the curtain opens, and she sees the severity of some of the soldiers' injuries, she gets instant stage fright.
 After 2 unsuccessful tries to get her to do the march song, Tonino tells the band to play "'O surdato 'nnammurato", which Anna Magnani beautifully sings the song herself.
 At that point, she has an epiphany and breaks down.
 After the performance, the base is under attack, and Tonino helps Flora out of the building.
 Unfortunately, Flora and Cristina get separated, and towards the end of the movie, Flora realizes how much she mistreated Cristina, and decides to sacrifice herself by shielding Tonino from an enemy plane firing at his car.
