Welcome to the South looks like a must. Did you write about about this film previously? It sounds familiar.

Mid August Lunch is a delightful film, loved it. Worth re-watching, which I will plan to do.

I really enjoy all of Gianni Di Gregorio’s films. They are warm and fun.

BTW, I recently watched Willem Dafoe - a great actor, in both Tomasso and Pasolini. Both were dark, sad, tragic, and painful to watch. Pass!!

Thank you for recommending Benvenuti Al Sue. Very enjoyable. My parents were from Sicily so I completely understand ! Also your emails are appreciated by my extended family in Buffalo, NY, NYC, AZ and even my brother in law, a Benedictine monk from Latrobe, PA !

Have a wonderful time a Venezia! Send us lots of pictures, please! And what a great photo of you and Silvio - the brilliant and funny mind behind Pane e Tulipani, one of my all-time favorite films.

Grazie mille for turning us on to L'Immensità; I loved it so much I bought it!

I also really liked Otto Montagne. Loved Nostalgia.

Have you watched the Italian series "Voiceless," available on one of my favorite channels, MHz?

It's compelling, subtle, intelligent - beautifully written and superbly acted.

Carissima Cheri, come sei beata! Prima, Cleveland e poi un meraviglioso viaggio (sounds like a honeymoon) e POI, La Serenissima! Who could possibly wish for more?
