Il filo invisibile

This was a very pleasant surprise. It's a nice change to have a film with gay characters that isn't about coming out. It's a serious film with a tremendous amount of comedy - bordering on farce. But has something to say. The acting is very well done. Just a very enjoying movie to watch.

I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging this story was, the characters were beautifully acted by the cast.

Reading subtitles wasn't difficult and I highly recommend viewing this film.

Enjoy!!! 😃

The Invisible Thread is a nice little treat for those who love sweet familial stories. The film actually offers nothing new. All is been done before. However, the tweak on the details gave a fresh breath of air to the tired formula, hence it's still fun to watch. Practically harmless and heartwarming.

How can you make a dramatic movie that is also super funny? A movie that is light but also carries some heavy message and social awareness in it? Well this movie gives this a go or a try ... and it mostly succeeds in my book.

Yes it is rough around the edges, but that does not make it bad - you have to suspend your disbelief in certain areas and just let yourself go ... and be led by the really good actors and a good script that gives them things to do. Not all things are easy to solve - and life can be more than challenging. Especially when it is filled with prejudices and people who are stuck with certain ideas ... not able to understand ... or willing to learn.

Now clash those things with marital problems and coming of age issues ... you could say that the movie packed a bit ... too much, but on the other hand it is really good in balancing those things out and giving the characters room to breathe ... and us entertainment ... that aims for the heart - well mainly. Don't be ashamed if you shed a tear or two.

Very good film about family. Strong characters, acted well. Some great comedic moments. Made me laugh, made me cry and made me think.

Positive, uplifting and honest.

Bit over-dramatic in parts but overall this is a solid 8/10.

I watched this in the original Italian language.

Good choice to watch with teenage kids.
