The epic of a family
Ricardo Martínez García
Italian director Giuseppe Tornatore ( Cinema Paradiso, Malena ) presents Baaria (2009) chronicle of a Sicilian family that runs through much of the highlights, and sustained high points of Italian history in the twentieth century, fighting for the very first survival, then by the vicissitudes love, political activism and family and social consolidation.
Live
colorful portrait of daily life in the rugged Sicilian province, where the grazing goats, playground, small jobs, the playfulness of youth, come together with the larger circumstances that appear to come to Mussolini power, and the subsequent entry into the war, the political struggle between fascists and communists, the film takes place under the theme of the life of Peppino (Francesco Scianna) from his childhood until he married the beautiful Mannina (Margareth Made) and the formation of a typically Sicilian family, always facing obstacles in one way or another bypass. The mafiosi are barely mentioned.
epic in which Tornatore returns to celebrate the great tradition and passion for cinema and music in Italian culture, which brilliantly examines social and historical aspects, without emphasizing theoretical endeavors and experiential elements, with large doses of drama, humor, great scenery and special effects. Tornatore's work goes beyond just another Italian film shown in Mexico, Mussolini's mistress, with which it bears some resemblance but it is more particular to focus on the case of a woman abandoned by the dictator, who used apparatus state to disappear. The director of Cinema Paradiso is more optimistic but still point out important aspects. Do not stop watching it.
