Dillo con parole mie

This is a typical Italian coming of age move that is set on the gorgeous Greek island of Ios. A well put together Italian movie about an aunt who brings her adolescent niece along for a "singles" girls trip to an erotic Greek island. Girl meets boy and so on... we all know where this is going. Overall a subtle, nicely executed movie with a cute message and a great ending. Well worth watching. A real 9/10 Italian movie that was made abroad. Nicely done folks. The island of Ios truely shines in this movie. With it's pristine beaches and perfect Cycladic settings Ios truly shines in this adaptation. If you are in the Greek islands Ios island is well worth the day-trip from Santorini; if not only for the beaches and the excellent main square nightlife. Enjoy.

In this almost-consistently funny Italian comedy, a 14-going-on25 teen (think a more naive 1st season Meadow Soprano without the smirk and an additional 20 lbs.) ditches her Girl Scout troop to bond with her 30 yr "old" aunt, who is still obsessing full-time about the breakup of her 8yr romance. Teen cons aunt into going to Cycladies, Greece (the party capital of the Mediterranean, from the looks of things). Identity mix-ups, almost-sexual escapades abound, but will true love work out in the end? And would a bollywood dance number be appropriate?

We get a little too much of the sex-obsessed teen, and a little too little of the gorgeous "old maid", but the movie pulls you along in its quest.

The world needs to see more of Stefania Montorsi, a delightful screen presence.

Thousands of backpackers descend upon Greece in the summer. This time it was an Aunt (Stefania Montorsi) and her niece (Martina Merlino) that joined them. Stefania was getting over the breakup of an eight-year relationship with Andrea (Giampaolo Morelli), and Megghy (Merlino) was looking to lose her virginity.

It was a very light romantic chick-flick that took place on Ios. It had a great soundtrack from Boy George to Mozart, from The Village People to Debussy.

Ultimately, it was a light salad; just enough humor to keep you interested, but little else.

I did like Montorsi and would like to see more of her in the future.

I really like this movie.

Stefania has just broken up with her beau of 8 years, Andrea. Her rebellious 14-year-old niece Martina, scusi Megghy, bails out of her girl scout trip to convince her mom to let her romp through Europe alone. But her grandmother decides that Megghy should stay with her aunt since she will be alone. Megghy persuades Stefania to take her to Ios in Greece, the island of love. But Stefania doesn't know that Megghy plans to lose her virginity to a stranger because she believes that she turns off guys because they can tell she's still a virgin

Stefania is absolutely gorgeous and her sense is humorous. Megghy on the other hand got slightly annoying. All her whining was getting on my nerves. Also she runs with her arms flailing. Very funny. Andrea is lovely and you can really tell he loves his girlfriend. I didn't expect the end to turn out the way they did. I love the bus scene. It's so cute!

I was wondering about that Indian music. I guessed I was getting Greek and Indian music confused but I was right that it was Indian. I actually learned the song at the end by a lot of playbacks.

I highly recommend this movie.

This is not a brilliant film -- we can't really care about these characters enough to enjoy their pensive montages -- but it is refreshingly blunt.

15-year-old Martina (who never made another feature, and soon turned to costuming) is often irritating, but in exactly the way a 15-year-old Italian girl should be: bossy, demanding, frustrated, and not yet sure how to marshal her own energies. Stefania (who co-wrote this) is 15 years older and too much in control -- oblivious that she stifles herself. Throw these two onto a sunny Greek isle full of vacationing teenagers, mix in a little Comedy of Errors, a little Cyrano, a little Odd Couple ... there is no real resolution, but a lot of truth. They argue, they agree, they both come of age in different ways.
