    Storyline

    • Trivia
      After several adaptations that had made the story family-friendly, director Matteo Garrone wanted this movie to go back to the grim atmosphere and satirical tone of Carlo Collodi's original novel, complete with depictions of cruelty and extreme poverty. Garrone said that much of the criticisms of the film's violent content came from adults, while children in the test audience were quite relaxed about that aspect.
    • Goofs
      When Pinocchio is at the Palace of Justice being tried, he says that he is a thief and he stole a chicken, jewels and many other things. Of course, these are lies but his nose does not grow.
    • Quotes

      Geppetto: I've been thinking to make with my hands, by myself, a wooden puppet.

    8/10
    Fine adaptation of a classic
    This is a largely faithful, visually neat adaptation of Collodi's classic of children's literature. Talented director Matteo Garrone (Il Racconto dei Racconti, Dogman, L'Imbalsamatore) keeps the darker side of his imagination at bay and correctly puts his visual talent in service of the story.

    Performances are solid; Roberto Benigni is much better as Geppetto - warm, paternal, lovably awkward - than he was as Pinocchio. Even the kids are fine, with Ielapi as the titular protagonist, the naive, stubborn but well-meaning Pinocchio, Baldari Calabria as the quietly mischievous young fairy and Di Domenicantonio as toxic friend Lucignolo.

    Special mention to the excellent make-up and costumes.
