Director Rossi tells this story with a disarming simplicity, sticking as he should to the wealth of small details which are the real events in a boy's life. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

10/02/2014 "Amici Per La Pelle" is a perfectly enjoyable movie about the strong friendship between two schoolboys as they grow up. They are apparently from different backgrounds, although I didn't find the contrast enough to make their friendship seem so unlikely, which might make for more of a story. As with much 1950s-60s Italian cinema, not a lot really happens, but it's all very watchable and well-made. 7.25/10 See more Read all reviews
