the best part in this movie be the first one and locate in sicily and i suppose . crialese show a good talent for photography and the movie start be delightfully surprising . the rest of the story be quite boring . crialese uselessly insist on stereotypical situation and character and try to melt neorealistic suggestion and video music technique and fellinian surrealistic remembrance and a very annoying and completely off topic soundtrack and lead the whole thing towards an end which give you the sensation of an exaggeratedly long story cut abruptly short . frankly and this be a real overrated movie and crialese be a real overrated director .
