The Son's Room October 25, 2008

Directed by Nanni Moretti, the movie manages to be both very funny and terrifically sad within its duration. Time, of course, is always cited as the great healer in situations as desolate and as delicate as this. One might say that ninety-nine minutes in Morettis company would be a fine way to help anybody at least some of the way through the longest and loneliest of nights. The cast include Nanni Moretti, Laura Morante, Jasmine Trinca, Giuseppe Sanfelice, Silvio Orlando, Sofia Vigliar and Claudio Santamaria.
