Aro Recommended Mid-August Lunch

 

Italy 2008, 75 minutes
Dir. Gianni Di Gregorio
Rating: [PG]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Comedy, Drama

Feat. Gianni Di Gregorio, Valeria  De Franciscis, Marina Cacciotti

 

Aroview: A comedy of manners and good taste in form and content, this soulful comedy sets up a middle-aged man forced to play host to a gaggle of strong-headed elderly women, including his tyrannical 93-year-old mother.

Lead actor Gianni Di Gregorio (and screenwriter of GOMORRAH) makes an impressive debut as director, with a wise meditation on food and companionship that is generously and satisfyingly easy-going.

"A perfect blend of calm execution and uninflected farce." - Boston Globe
