  • Beautiful, Heartbreaking & Wonderful, Like Italy!

    Family saga that follows four friends and brothers through the tumultuous 60's in Italy, taking you along through the decades, leading to the millennium. I first viewed this film at the Seattle International Film Festival and loved it! Great characters. Rich relationships. All wrapped in this lovely, sentimental score. Glad to finally have my own copy!

  • A great movie & a learning experience all in one DVD package!

    I purchased he DVD for my daughter, she takes Italian Honors in High School. She watched this movie in class & loved it so much she asked me to purchase one for her so she could watch it over & over to sharpen her Italian speaking skills. Thank-you for making this available on Ebay for a reasonable price. This will help my daughter tremendously!!

  • Loved it!

    Perhaps not to be watched at one very long sitting, this plays very much like a mini series. Telling the captivating story of middle class Italian siblings, from their late teens onwards until middle age, covering different parts of Italy, from Turin to Sicily, I was thoroughly hooked from beginning to end. It is very well paced, supported by first rate acting with truly believable characters. The only small niggle was the lack of aging among the adult characters, whose appearance in middle age is identical to that of their youthful years. Plenty of drama, romance and scenery make this somehow irresistible.

  • Brilliant!

    One of my very favourites of this era, or any other. Do not be discouraged by the long length - make a nice pasta with some salad and sit back and watch the 1st half. I surmise you will make some espresso, dish out some gelato, and sit back for the 2nd half as well.

  • A very nice movie

    We very much enjoy the movie. The story and the performance don't make us feel this 6-hr drama is long. We finished watching it in two nights. This movie is definitely recommended.

  • Best of Yourh

    It’s incomplete! It was promoted as a 2 disk set but I found out it’s a 3 disk series! Very disappointing.
