| Summary |
Sicilia! Something as simple as a herring roasting on a hearth, or a meal of bread, wine and winter melon, takes on the humble aura of a Caravaggio painting in this masterful film. A tragicomedy involving an orange peddler, an Italian recently returned from America, two 'stinky' police officers, a guilt-stricken landowner, a traveling knife sharpener and, perhaps most unforgettably, an indomitable peasant mother who reminisces about meals of snails and wild chicory, her husband's philandering and cowardice, and her own father's belief in an honest days labor, socialism, and St. Joseph. |
|
Where does your hidden smile lie? With great sensitivity and insight, Pedro Costa documents the editing of Sicilia! as Straub-Huillet arge over eachcut and its effect. The resulting film is, per Cst, his first comedy and his first love story. |
