    Lets set the scene then for this light comedy, we find Piero Cicala (Emilio Solfrizzi) who was a one hit wonder in the 80s with the song ”Io, te e il mare ” ” Me you and the Sea” , it sold millions and he had a tasted fame. Cicala lives in a small village in Puglia and spends his time as a waiter in a restaurant named King Octopus owned by his now ex-wife Marta (Iaia Forte), often hanging out with his close friend Gianni (Toto Onnis) a Barber who was a musician, now often found speaking to the octopus, odd I think you will agree but we all remember the very clever Spanish Octopus Paul, who correctly predicted the results of 7 World Cup Football matches last year, so who are we to snicker. Out of the blue arrive Emissario (Fabrizio Buompastore) with a proposal to participate in a TV show called ”The Best Years” at first reluctant, should he or should he not ? Cicala relents in the end lured by the smell of fame and the prommise of a visit to Rome entices him into action. In the Hotel Cicala meets the world famous Cortes Talita (Belen Rodreques) who is in Rome launching a new product, the eyes of the world is on her and for reasons not known her eyes are on Cicala, well perhaps too many alcoholic drinks was to blame. Talita declares to the world press that Cicala is her new boyfriend and they take off in a private jet heading to the US of A, where his singing unlike at home is greeted with great enthusiasm. The film is very well shot, worth watching just for that reason alone and it is a nice enough watch on a rainy afternoon, Belen; I wish to God her forehead would move so that her painted on eyebrows looked less fake, we need a law banning Botox and acting ever being shown on the same screen.

  • Notizie degli scavi

    [ 2010, Italy ] starting from $1.99

    Genres: Drama

    Actors: Giuseppe Battiston, Ambra Angiolini, Iaia Forte, Giorgia Giorgia Salari, Anna Paola Vellaccio, Francesca Fava

    Directors: Emidio Greco

    The main character of the story, ironically nicknamed “the Professor”, is an insignificant-looking man in his forties with an absorbed and stunned expression on his face. Apparently shut off from the world around him, he pays unprepared and unpredictable attention to things, leading him to becoming distracted and following a train of a thought often incongruous to the contingencies of life. He leads a wretched life as a handyman in a dodgy house-cum-hostel in Rome. However, one day the drudgery of his life is thrown into a whirl by his encounter with the Marchesa, a prostitute who used to live in the house and who has tried to kill herself after a doomed love affair. The Professor frequently goes to visit her in hospital and, in a build-up of attentions, exchanges of simple gestures and mutual kindnesses, it appears that an unlikely affection is developing between them. Yet it is another episode that will affect the Professor’s conscience more deeply: a visit to the ruins of Villa Adriana in Tivoli. Through an exchange and interweaving of meanings, the extraordinary archaeological remains will reawaken his awareness of the mediocrity of his life.
