Review of Cinema Paradiso (1988) by Andy P — 12 Oct 2014
In the esteemed traditions of Neorealism and Italian comedy, Cinema Paradiso finds an excellent balance between humor and nostalgia to become an endearing love letter to cinema. Though the melodrama can be excessively sugary and sentimental, there is pathos and poignancy in the relationship between Alfredo (played impeccably by Philippe Noiret) and young Salvatore.
