Audience Member The story of the journalist Terzani. simple film, only one amazing location and the dialogue between father and son. Very touchy! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Un buon modo per avvicinarsi al pensiero e al personaggio di Terzani in solo un'ora e mezza. Nonostante il tema trattato e alla mancanza quasi totale di dinamicità il film/dialogo non à (C) mai lento o noioso e se lo si affronta ben disposti ci si troverà a riflettere commossi sul senso della vita. Bruno Ganz bravissimo!! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Definitely not action or comedy :) Dialogues of a dying man with his son. Tune in, sit down and enjoy the views of Toscany. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member A retired journalist gets sick of the nonsense from wars and politics of his time, seeking refuge to stay in remote country side. Plenty of dialogues, meaning is one dimensional. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member It is very hard to tell my opinion about this movie. I mean the life of Mr. Terzani was extraordinary, this is the old Tiziano who talk about his life with his son. Stop. It is interesting, but a little reductive. It is more a philosophical story; they tell a lot, but one when is like me who is sleepy, needs some action, all these words are difficult to be understood. In fact amongs comments I read on the internet, the one I liked the most was The Book is Better. I have not read the book but I share this opinion. The picks of the movie are when Terzani-Ganz attacks the the Maoism and the economy at the same time. For instance he says that China is going to be like Hong Kong, the Modern China is no more China. Globalization kills the spirit of a great Folk. I strongly believe this, even if I could be a victim of consumerism, like all my facebook friend whose life seems to develop not into the world, but in a Shopping Centre Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
