(2011) Rust/ Ruggine (In Italian with English subtitles) PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA

Adapted from the novel by Stefano Massaron co-written and directed by Daniele Gaglianone that has a bunch of children playing around with their imaginary games for 53 minutes, particularly at this 'dumping broken car lot site' called "The Castle". During this was happening we are also shown some adults hanging around in a bar. As it turns out, the adults hanging around at the bar used to be some of those same kids we had been seeing from the first 53 minutes with the kid, Carmine (Valerio Mastandrea) being the most aggressive and the most gruff, and Sandro (Stefano Accorsi) being the most grounded. Carmine also has a little sister, Rosalia who becomes a little dysfunctional herself when we see her as an adult. The group of kids lives then becomes interrupted as soon as one of their own is discovered dead by local authorities. They think it's the loony, Bava with Carmine leading the pack chasing and beating him with their sticks. Again, the parents appear to be just as absent as much as the local police. I have no idea how anyone can relate to this scenario unless their is a great divide between the wealthy and the impoverished.

What viewers hardly see here are the local authorities questioning anyone if a body is discovered. It is like, the only reason they are only there is by principle. The doctor, Boldrini (Filippo Timi ) descends into insanity viewers have no idea how he got that way or that he even had a son in the first place as we see him playing with him of a kid name Michele throughout. No one misses him or his presence to the community as he appears to be the only only one who drives an expensive car. Is this how Italian local authorities treat the missing or the dead by not questioning anyone or whether their is any consequences for anyone's actions or behavior problems. Then this film is totally outdated and out of touch.
