DVD Review: Mellow, marvellous Mediterraneo!
Summary: 4 Stars
When I saw that Silvio Berlusconi was involved in the making of this movie, I expected brashness. Instead, this movie was a gentle tale of the Italian passion for life, love and women. Even in the midst of war, this capacity for warmth spreads its glow and draws the viewer into a delightful walk through the Italian soul in all its guises: from the macho sergeant (who wants to dominate in everything from the soccer field to the appointments with the local prostitute) to the educated and artistic Lieutenant (who would rather paint than fight) and from the virgin who finds his One True Love in the only prostitute on the lost Mediterranean island to the peasant soldier who loves his donkey Silvana with an equal passion, we ourselves come to love these crazy, quirky romantic men and all they represent.
Despite its wryly comic twists, which often had us laughing out loud, the slow meandering style lends an affable allure to the movie and the tender, poignant end was perfect.
English sub-titles were good. The acting was excellent and the directing captured the hazy, lazy atmosphere of an island idyll in an ironic subtext because, of course, the rest of the world was at war.
The Oscar this movie won was well-deserved!
