Sheri Linden Los Angeles Times 05/21/2015
Whether director Gianni Amelio is aiming for emotional effect or social commentary, his fuzzy detours into melodrama land well off the mark. Go to Full Review
Michael J. Agovino The New Republic 05/08/2015
After a more-or-less ten-year absence from Italy and its concerns, Amelio has returned to reflect on the damage caused by the repeated concussions of the Berlusconi era. Go to Full Review
Ben Kenigsberg New York Times 05/07/2015
Digressions involving suicide, child abuse, immigration and unions muddy the film's meaning rather than illuminate it. Go to Full Review

05/02/2015 One of a marvellous crop of Italian films issuing over the last year or so, in which the Italian instinct, nous and knowledge of the human being are woven beautifully into stories of poignancy, realism and humour. Even when life is terrible. And amidst the dreadful harshness of modern, big cities, individual people lead heroic lives. This film is about leaving your assumptions behind and being open. Reminiscent of Being There, it is also like an achingly beautiful renaissance canvas of both suffering and enlightenment. If only the powers that run this world were more like this compassionate, fearless, intelligent man. See more 03/15/2014 Interessante. Abbozzato.
