i don't agree with the last statement re the professionalism of the actors in this piece.

open city had non professionals in it also

i liked and enjoyed gal vino who was also in other taviani movies notably padre pa drone Italian actors look like people and not pretty faces that are rampant in American Hollywood productions. as an Italian living out side of Italy the nice scene is where gal vino finds that his childhood sweetheart again, Italy has always been to me magical still is. the taviani brotheres take stories and add wistful air to them remember another movie starring Marcello mastroiani who could still see the fireflies of his youth i think it was a sicilian movie i alwyas enjoy Italian films reminds me of where i want to be
