well and where do i start . a one of the other reviewer say and you know youre in for a real treat when you see the opening shot minute and minute of film time spend on a guy stand on a travelator . i would not repeat rubin excellent summary of the story . what i would like to say and though and be that this film grip me more than any film i can remember . i sit open mouth and and on the edge of my seat all the way through . the camera work and sound track and fantastic performance ( particularly that of tony servillo ) draw you to the screen and would not let you look away . it italian and so of course everyone look fantastic and but it be by no mean merely an exercise in cool style . this be a film with lot to say about luck and loss and love . go and see it .
