Sulla stessa onda

A marvel in the silverscreen world, if with another director, or with a different screenplay, or simply by using another main cast, because something went really wrong in a kind of genre that usually hits the homerun whatever...

its an italian love you till death, coming of age romance drama, with extremely good looking young actors, in a extremely beautiful filming locations near palermo ( that agonizes me alot because this is the time of the year i usually do a medical rehabilitation trip to warmer latutudes e.g. Gran canaria , and i cant travel anywhere due to corona) , and most of all its a film about how to say arrivederci in an extremely slow tempo, without the typical italian verbal and nonverbal communication techniques. The caracterbuilding is also slippery when wet and the split enz relationships are pretty complicated. The health issue isnt cancer this time, its a nevromuscular dystrofi that is the silent slowly developing death sentence in this flick. So its easy to summarize, it misses the target due to untrained castmaterial, and the storys plotted terribly amateuristic. Even though some good scenery filming, and clear blue sky and perfect sailing conditions its not good enough.so sore and yet forgotten by the grumpy old man.

This movie is soo beautiful that i automatically watched it again after i watched it for the first time, i really liked ittt. I love the song of the movie too ( Promise) by Ben Howard.

A good romantic movie and an even more beautiful actress Elvira ... A beautiful story.

Coming of Age stories .. you are either into them or you are not. Of course it doesn't hurt if the movies are good anyway. I would say this one is a decent effort - I do understand if you think a bit differently though. There is the pacing thing, the likeability of the characters and other stuff to consider.

I was not bored watching this, but I was not really smitten too much either. Of course the target audience is a different one than myself. Still there have been movies made, similar to this that were able to be more in line with me or had more to entertain me. A fine movie if nothing else, but more for those into them.

Lovely, well acted film. Sensitive, romantic, coming of age. Great soundtrack. You get a sense of family and belonging, of life, relationships and living life even when experiencing love. Love between parents and love between lovers. Life can last 10 years, 16 years or a life time. The same goes for love. It is an honour to be able to love someone, no matter for how long.
