A classic Italian film from the 1988 that won Best Foreign Film at the Oscars.

The plot is about a boy who loves films and works in a theater call Cinema Paradiso. As he grows older he goes through a series of events including falling madly in love.

Its a story about love, friendship, and learning to let go. This film entertains you right from the start to the end. It does what a movie should do. It has real substance and endows a feeling of familiarity. You feel like its the first time watching a movie because its so classic, an excellent exemplar of excellence in film making. A masterwork in one word.

It will make you;.

Laugh out loud.

Inspire.

Wonder.

Angry.

Sad.

Happy.

Love.

Moved.

I highly recommend this masterpiece to anyone who enjoys films, It will stay with you for ever:).
