Giuseppe Tornatore’s romantic ode to the movies charmed America, convincing theater-goers that little Italian kids are the cutest in the world. Little Salvatore Cascio grows up in a projection booth under the life-tutelage of kindly Philippe Noiret. Arrow presents the theatrical version of this Best Foreign Picture Oscar winner in 4K Ultra HD. The (greatly) extended version is on a second Blu-ray — it plays like a different movie entirely.

Giuseppe Tornatore’s ode to the Italian love of movies was a major hit here in 1990, despite being severely cut by Miramax. In 2002 the director reworked his long version into an almost three-hour sentimental epic that enlarges the film’s scope and deepens its sentiments.

Your average foreign import movie, it seems, makes a brief splash around Oscar time and then disappears as if down a rabbit hole. A few years back I saw a fantastic Argentine movie called The Secret in Their Eyes.

Romance couldn't ask for a better wingman than the rain. That's what the movies have taught us anyway.
Forget candlelight, holding your boombox aloft or penning a sonnet. Nothing sets the mood for love better than a good dose of rain. Think of it as Mother Nature playing matchmaker. Unvoiced emotions, like raindrops, gather until they become overwhelming and release in a deluge of kisses or romantic declarations.
In "Dear John," based on the Nicholas Sparks novel of the same name, soldier John Tyree (Channing Tatum) is on leave when he meets and falls for college student Savannah Lynn Curtis (Amanda Seyfried). They share their first kiss in the rain.
"Dear John" isn't the only film that has taken advantage of rain's mysterious properties. This romantic device has been bringing couples together throughout cinematic history.
Here's some of the top cinematic kisses in the rain:
Warning: Spoilers!
