Malena
Do NOT be put off by Italian subtitles; the subtitles are almost invisible - but might well be an excellent opportunity to learn Italian....
Malena is a gorgeous film. Guiseppe Tornatore is a magnificent director. Ennio Morricone is a fabulous composer. Monica Belucci is beyond beautiful. Put them all together in an Italy ravished by the thrust of Facism under Mussolini and you have one hell of a film.
I have watched it over and over and it never fails to offer something new. The cinematography is outstanding.
Just watch Belucci walk through town, never deigning to glance at her many admirers, all to the remarkable music of Morricone. If you can't love this film, your soul may well be dead....
