Cinema Paradiso

The story is drawn from the director Giuseppe Tornatore's childhood memories, presented here as a series of loosely-linked episodes commemorating the importance of movies -- of art -- in the lives of people forced to manage on very little.

Everything just clicks in this movie: the drama, the comedy, the romance... the story, the chemistry between Toto and Alfredo, the wave of nostalgia, the incredible soundtrack, and that ending, so beautiful and emotional you’re not even sure if it’s happy or sad. Just pure cinema

"There's no future, Salvatore. Only the past. Even what happened yesterday is only a dream, a marvellous dream. I couldn't have hoped for a better ending." ♡
