The Bodyguard (original Italian title: Il guardaspalle) is a 1993 adult drama directed by and starring Rocco Siffredi, featuring Rosa Caracciolo in her breakout role. While its title intentionally mirrors the 1992 Hollywood blockbuster starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner, this production is a distinct entry in the hardcore genre that eventually led to a real-life marriage between its two leads. Plot and Setting
The story shifts from a standard protection detail into a high-stakes psychological game. Rocco doesn’t just guard her doors; he deconstructs her life, stripping away the hangers-on and the noise until it’s just the two of them. Rosa, initially resentful of his stifling presence, begins to see the man behind the tactical mask—a veteran haunted by the one life he couldn't save.
