It Was She Who Wanted It! (Italian: Era lei che lo voleva!) is a 1953 Italian comedy film directed by Marino Girolami and starring Walter Chiari, Lucia Bosè and Carlo Campanini.^[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Alberto Boccianti. It involves the emotional bickering between a psychiatrist and a rather brusque boxer.

After seeing the famous Dinamite boxer in a sports magazine, a girl has visions, seeing in every person she meets the face of the boxer. Her doctor manages to remind her of having met him in a fleeting and unpleasant occasion, but concludes that the visions are the result of her unconscious love for the boxer.
