I did like this short a lot: it is neither Italian (as suggested by the name Antonio), nor American (as "goodbye") - it is global in its points of view and style, and an entertaining piece of work for all audiences. Having had the chance to check some of Michael's previous work, I believe "Goodbye Antonio" is a step towards full directing and writing maturity, a step that takes him closer to the first feature film (which I am impatiently waiting for). Few formal "slides" take nothing from the overall feeling which the short lives us with, and casting and editing are definitely other "plus". In conclusion: hope this IMDb page grows to host many of Zampino's work, as I ma curios to check where his talent and sensitivity will lead him.
