Croce e delizia

So boring. Characters just yell and scream at each other throughout , mostly for no reason. Supposed to be a comedy , but I didn't even smile once , let alone laugh. Couldn't care less about any of the characters. Saw it with my wife and sat through this rubbish for her , right till the end. If I had watched it alone I would have walked out after the first 15 minutes. Some others in the audience did! My wife's verdict "pretty ordinary". Just excruciating.

This is a very different LGBT movie. Characters are 50+ men. The love is depicted beautifully. Italian eccentricity and LGBT social issues have been subtly displayed. Please watch.

This film is totally unconvincing. I didn't believe for a minute that those two men were gay, or actually in love with each other. It felt like the director came up with an interesting plot in his head and created a film without giving it much further thought. But c'mon! 50+ and 60+ men suddenly sexually attracted to each other after living decades as happy heterosexuals? It's great to live in a world where anyone can love anyone freely. But if you want to pull off an implausible storyline like that, you need to come up with a better script.

Saw this film aboard a flight (Thanks, Air Canada!) and enjoyed it immensely. Doesn't seem to be available anywhere in the USA in any format or on any streaming platform yet. Seek it out!

This beautifully shot family comedy by director Simone Godano is the freshest & most enjoyable film I have see at the Outfest Film Festival this year. The actors are charming, moving, hilarious and sexy. The audience I watched this movie with loved every single minute. I recommend it without reservation.
