I have to send a Shout out To The Jewish Mother I never had, Edna Gruber. If it wasnt for her, I would never have seen this movie. It's original title is Nuovo Cinema Paradiso is an Italian film written and directed by Giuseppe Tornatore. It was internationally released as Cinema Paradiso in France, Spain, the UK and the U.S. Told in flashback, it tells the story of the return to his native Sicilian village of a successful film director Salvatore for the funeral of his old friend Alfredo, who was the projectionist at the local "Cinema Paradiso". Ultimately, Alfredo serves as a wise father figure to his young friend who only wishes the best to see him succeed, even if it means breaking his heart in the process.
I loved this movie (thank God for subtitiles). This is the story of my life. Im gonna have to write my own Cinema Paradiso, telling my story looking for my paradise with the love and joy of film I give it a 10 out of 10. I recomend you to see the directors cut. Its worth every penny.
