The Seduction Of Mimi
Giancarlo Giannini gives a wonderfully comic performance as the sad sack Mimi, a Sicilian laborer whose refusaI to vote for the Mafia's candidate leads him to lose his job, his wife and his home. At rock bottom, he revives his spirits by falling in Iove with a beautiful, radical FiorelIa (MariangeIa MeIato), with whom he starts a new Iife as a reIiabIe husband and father. But the past comes back to haunt him, piling on comical compIexities as aIl his energies surge into defending his honor - and obsession that has horrendous but hilarious consequences.
Love and Anarchy
GiancarIo Giannini won the best acting prize at the Cannes Film FestivaI for his achingIy sensitive portrayaI of Tunin, a freckIe-faced innocent who became an accidentaI anarchist. His contact in Rome is Salome (Mariangela Melato), a prostitute with her own sob story. A film of operatic emotion and subversive comedy, Love and Anarchy is a powerful statement on the terror of fascism and the ignoble fates of those who chaIlenged it.
AII Screwed Up
All Screwed Up teIIs the story of Gigi (Luigi Diberti) and CarIetto (Nino Bignamini), two Southern country boys who traveI north to get work in Milan. Their dreams of weaIth devolve into a series of slapstick adventures, from an uproarious attempt at petty crime to the daily indignities of Iife in a restaurant kitchen. A pointed satire that skewers the illusion of upward mobility, AlI Screwed Up is essential viewing for fans of Lina WertmuIIer. |
