The Price of Nonna’s Inheritance reunites the unorthodox but united Delle Fave clan. Directed by Giovanni Bognetti, this comedy sequel centers on grandmother Giuliana’s engagement to her dubious ex, Nunzio.

Worried for her mother’s safety and inheritance, Anna calls on her husband Carlo and their adult children, Alessandra and Emilio, to intervene. Christian De Sica and Angela Finocchiaro reprise their roles as the long-married but mismatched parents, joined this time by Dharma Mangia Woods, Claudio Colica, and Fioretta Mari.

While this dysfunctional Italian family’s tactics leave much to be desired, their devotion to one another remains the true heart of the film. Over the course of their ill-advised scheme, bonds are strengthened through shared laughter and frustration. Whether thwarting wedding plans or each other, the Delle Faves prove that what really matters is having one another’s backs through every comedic calamity.

The Price of Nonna’s Inheritance is probably one of the rare comedies that remains true to the genre. Giovanni Bognetti has delivered a funny film about how selfish families can get. The movie begins with a character named Carlo waking up in the middle of the night and hearing a gunshot. The story goes back a few weeks to when Anna meets her old lover, Nunzio Zampa, who was a big-time womanizer, in Rome after many years. He’d moved around several South American countries, and he was proud of the life he had led. Anna was not impressed with the playboy stories he shared, which just reminded her Nunzio had not changed much after all these years. Nunzio also tried to kiss her when he dropped her off at her home, but she steered away from making a mistake. So what will happen between Nunzio and Anna next? Let’s find out.

Netflix Italy has been churning out a lot of movies and television shows from their home country. Usually, Italy is only known for its scenic beauty, but lately, Netflix has taken it upon themselves to change the narrative about the country. Just last week, Netflix Italy released a show about a transitioned woman that was presented very sensitively, A Life You Wanted. Tearsmith, however, was swing-and-a-miss in the psychological drama, and it borderline became cringeworthy. The Price of Nonna’s Inheritance is Netflix Italy’s venture into a comedy-drama about a family in dire need of money. The movie was released on June 4, 2024, and was written and directed by Giovanni Bognetti.

It is hardly ninety minutes long, and it is all about Anna and her family, which consists of her husband Carlo, daughter Alessandra, and son Emilio, who are desperate for money to fund their endeavors. They are aware their grandmother,...
