Spirited Teresa

This movie is full of great actors but Lilia Silvi is the key. The way she executes her role is the glue that binds the whole thing together. As great as other performances are in this film, they would all be for naught if not for Lilia Silvi. On the strength of her performance in this film, I have watched, and enjoyed, many other of her films.

Of the other roles, the uncle, the father, and the mother provide the most interest and support. I'm very impressed at the range of characters that Giuditta Rissone, who played the mother, is capable of playing. The not-too-bright boyfriend was necessary to the storyline, but a different take on the character would have probably worked better in the movie.

Even though this is just a silly romantic comedy, Lilia Silvi is amazing. I highly recommend this movie just to watch her.
