I finally saw Cinema Paradiso (1988) [The New Version] last night. As I briefly posted on Facebook, it was a sweet film, but eerily familiar (was there an American remake?). Nicely done, but, thought it was somewhat disjointed -- maybe because of the extra footage? It could've gone the Godfather II route with back-and-forth intertwining, but, all in all, very pleasant. Anyone interested in cinema, movie theaters, and Italy/Sicily -- and doesn't mind subtitles -- should enjoy this classic.




I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol
