    Somewhat spoiled by silly effects
    This could have been much better. The story was quite good, but was hampered by silly use of speeded cameras, and confusing and unexplained fantasy elements. Nonetheless, it was quite pleasant, with Emily Hampshire interesting in the female lead role. Joe Mantegna and Kate Nelligan also impressed. There were several amusing bits parodying Italian emotional characteristics.
