As a fan of Rudolph Valentino and having read every book on the man, "Good Night Valentino" is by far the best depiction of the silent screen star ever captured. When I first saw Edoardo Ballerini in the film "Dinner Rush" I could not believe how much he physically resembled Valentino without in any way trying. When I later heard Ballerini was starring and directing a film about the legend, I knew I had to see it. I was not disappointed."Good Night Valentino" is an excellant two character study that beautifully captures the mood of 1926 (and the state of mind of Valentino in the days before his untimely death at age 31). Both actors are so good that you feel as though you are watching a documentary on Valentino. Let's hope that we see more work by this talented actor/director soon!
