In her first directorial, Paola Cortellesi tries to surprise everyone with a film set in the post-war period, in black and white and with a clear reference to the Italian cinema of Neoralism. The premises suggest an innovative and courageous work. As the minutes pass, however, what you feel is a sort of deja vu, with dialogues, situations and contexts that are all too familiar and not very spontaneous. Spontaneity, naturalness and daily rhythm, which were typical indicators of Neoralism, are absent here. The propaganda towards the redundant violence against women is stinging; the soundtracks out of time and a predictable and disappointing ending, to say the least, make it a disappointing performance, with the clear sensation of addressing a good-natured audience.

Amazing movie on life.incredible film about the meaning of life, suggesting that there is much more than what we see with our eyes...Miyazaki gives us a lesson in love for Mother Earth...and that it depends on each of us if this world will be saved...the soundtrack is majestic...it touches the right chords of the soul of the spectator who wonders what we are and why we are constantly in dispute...nothing is lost and what we believe is only appearance because the true essence is within us and in our thoughts... The heron is our conscience that calls us to awaken... a world that is constantly changing and whether it will be better depends on man.

A great testament of Mariano Laurenti, which in fact ends his career.

The screenplay uses an expert of the genre, that is, Gino Capone.

Perfect dialogue, with perfect gags and jokes.
