Aliki Vougiouklaki’s only English-language film resurfaces after 60 years

·

Greek movie star Aliki Vougiouklaki’s only English-language movie, Aliki My Love, has been digitally restored and was broadcast for the first time on Greek television, 60 years after its premiere. 

The film aired on Greek TV network Star Channel on New Year’s Day 2023. 

According to the network, nobody knows the real reason why the Aliki My Love remained “hidden” for so many years.

“In recent years, there had been damage to the film negatives, as a result of which there was difficulty in its digital restoration,” the network explained.

The movie has since been restored by Greek production company Finos Films in high resolution and with Greek subtitles.

The movie was written by George St George and was filmed on the Greek island of Ios.
