Le dolci zie

Decent movie although I'm pretty sure I experienced a censored version. I found the peasant and communist grandfather amusing and his constant quarrels with the local priest, even the nephew nephew role in the house together with the three aunts was not played so badly. This is not a film full of meaning but in a small way it works.

I'm not a fan of old sexy Italian comedies for obvious reasons, but this one seemed to be almost promising: the concept of a boy living with his anarchist grandpa and his younger lover in the country was cute and naive, and some scenes at the start of the movie are genuinely well done.

We are then introduced to the boy's aunts, three spinsters who want to "save him", and the movie becomes immediately unbearably stupid and basically unwatchable. The gags are stupid, the movie drags on and lose momentum. There's a lot of nudity but I didn't care.

I watched the movie with English subs. I don't know who translated for the movie. Some captions were weird. But in general, it was funny and entertaining. The movie is about a young man whose name is Libero, begins to discover sexual experience/pleasures with the help from his grandpa. But his Christian aunts later take him under their care and restrict him to his sexual world. The movie also contains politics and religions but they are lightly mentioned. Although the movie is about sex, it is not very sexually explicit and obscene to watch. It's like a combination of drama, comedy and a little bit of romance.
