Garage Olimpo (1999)
A new Ken Loach!
If you like the Loach of "Land and Freedom" you'll love this film. Bechis forgot the stillness and the nihilism of Alambrado to direct a touching and tough film on Argentina's regime. A real good movie, I loved it, hope you will too!
Felicia's Journey (1999)
If you read the book...see the movie!
Another great Egoyan movie. Bob Hoskins performance is blessed; the role he plays is extremely complex and in my opinion he already is a nominee (if not a winner) for the best actor Academy Award. The movie has Egoyan's typical flash-backs, and unfolds on an unpredictable plot. By the way, the movie and the book have different endings! If you had high expectations after "The sweet hereafter" they will be met.
Radiofreccia (1998)
Buy Liga's CDs, you can pass on his movie...
At the end of the day, a useless film. The characters are (except for Freccia) superficial. The first part of the movie is slow, and heroin itself could have been treated in a deeper and more introspective way. Two good reasons for watching the film: The beautiful soundtrack and Guccini's cameo
La vita è bella (1997)
Laughs can shorten Memory
The point is not that there are "sacred areas" you cannot laugh about. The point is that thousands of innocent people have been uselessly tortured and killed. This film risks to give youngsters the sensation that Shoah wasn't "that" bad, specially in times where some people say that Auschwitz never really happened. Sorry if I was unable to smile or laugh at jokes in such terrible locations for human history. I agree with "Le Monde" who called it a negationist movie
