- Great "feel good" movie
What a great film!Without the benefit of reading any reviews ahead of viewing the film it might be perceived as somewhat odd, but I cannot speak highly enough about this wonderful film.I now love Nanni Moretti and want to see everything he has done.His sense of humor and joy are so refreshing.If you need a 'feel good' movie, look no further.
Rating:
- Agreed....stellar
Absolutely criminal that this, along with other Nanni Moretti films, are not available on dvd here in the states.This is an absolute stunning piece of work, one that I cannot get tired of watching, no matter how many times I view it.As an avid Vespa and Lambretta collector myself, I am a bit biased as well.But, that aside, it's fantastic and has the proverbial Moretti mark throughout.The scene with Jennifer Beals is priceless and worthy of whatever you have to do to see it.

- What a Joy to watch over and over again
This is one of my favorite movies -- a joy to watch repeatedly, especially the opening scenes riding through Rome on his Vespa and his hysterical take on families dominated by their children.
Rating:
- Will this ever -please- be on DVD?
By the end of this movie, in a very particular, specific moment, I think I finally understood, for the first time, what making movies is all about, what movies are for.
Just don't expect explosions (although there are plenty of them) or street chases (um, there's a long one, too) ;-)
Rating:
- What joy!
I've watched parts of this movie at least a dozen times: Moretti watching the dancers, running into Jennifer Beals, riding his scooter by fine Roman apartment buildings, pretending to be a director of a musical about a 1950s Trotskyist pastry chef, and, finally--I don't know how he makes such an everyday act so memorable--drinking a glass of water. Something incredibly human about it all.
