Hi, I saw your entry on the ifilm_exchange community about "I Cento Passi". I'm italian (sicilian, to be more specific) and I'm very happy that foreign people love this movie, it means so much for our culture. And also, Misfits and Doctor Who FTW!! Sooo I'm adding you and I'd be glad if you'll add me back (anyway, I'm following you on Tumblr)! ;)
So nice to 'meet' you =] The film was really great. I'm not completely versed in Mafia knowledge, but I feel like it's definitely not something to be glossed over or glorified, and I Cento Passi certainly portrayed it, and its relation to the people of the region, in a much more thoughtful, grounded, unidealised way than many 'Mafia films' around, which is so commendable. I'll be sure to try and recommend it to more people, seeing as you think it's a valuable portrayal of events too. I have a certain affection for your country, and 'foreign' countries in general =]
You have great taste hehe! Added back. I've been very inactive around these parts, but yay thanks for following on tumblr! thevaguestoffeeling ? I've followed back too.
