This movie is there to affect your feelings.ĭefinitely to be seen. Some movies are there to entertain, some to scare, some to question. Maybe there lies its magic: no Hollywood superstars, no special effects, just pure emotions and feelings, love, fear, grief and regret, nostalgia for childhood and youth, memories of places and times that will not come back, memories of the loved ones. Reviewed by darkside2003 10 / 10 / 10 A MasterpieceI seldom watch Italian movies, (i saw it today for the first time) being Italian maybe i'm biased, but this one really stands out.Ī real masterpiece i can't remember another movie so moving like this one, maybe Schindler's list it makes you laugh and it makes you cry, yet it is so simple and straightforward.

I tend to keep such people at arms length and maintain a wary eye fixed upon them at all times. It's characters are portrayed by each and every actor in award winning style and the music is not only beautiful but absolutely perfect for this film.It is quite simply the story of a human life and it's tragedies and triumphs within the context of a vocation.Ī young boy matures and gradually learns the lessons of life, cultivates his passion for the cinema, and is rewarded with professional success however, he remains unfulfilled for true love has escaped him only to return in the form of a gift of love which transcends time, space, and death to reveal at the closing of the film Toto's one true mistress.A staggering triumph of both the cinematic art and of story telling and yet there may be found people who do not like this movie.

It contains no expensive special effects, it has no gratuitous sex or violence, it has no 'multi-millon dollar per performance' actors that I know of, it is arguable whether it even has a story line, and yet it soars far above the nonsense that film makers are producing these days. Perhaps it is because of it's simplicity. It reaches within me to places other movies have never reached and I have often wondered why.

Like many who have posted at this site before me I have seen it many many times. 'Cinema Paradiso' is simply the finest movie I have ever seen. 10 / 10 / 10 Personal FavoriteWhether you are a professional or an amateur it is always wise to avoid superlatives with regard to a movie critique.
