      I used to think that history and politics are just dolls that are manipulated.

      "The Mafia only kills in the summer," Arturo's father said to the young Arturo.
      More than 20 years later, Arturo held his son, walked past the monuments, and told his son the story of the year.
      At the beginning of the story Arturo said that the mafia affects the lives of people in his hometown. Then all the events are twisted with Arturo's life, especially his love, in a wonderful way. This is very similar to "Forrest Gump", but after all, Forrest Gump's story is the true story. From...

      Righteousness is sent to ordinary people

      To be honest, this film is really difficult for me to bring in. First of all, the word mafia rarely appears in normal times. I saw the truth about variety shows in other countries. So, it is difficult for me to empathize with the history of the Mafia and the emotional disputes between ordinary people and the Mafia. So my sense of bringing in is relatively poor.
            The director basically pinned the actions of the Mafia and the people's feelings towards the Mafia on a couple. This is also...

      I may not understand but I am very touched

      I really want to understand. But what I can understand is the love between the male lead and the female lead.
      Maybe the story of the Mafia and the world are far away from me. But what happened to another group of people may also happen around me.
      The male protagonist may have only a simple and persistent love story, but this story happened in Palermo, a small town full of mafia murders and resistance. Therefore, the story background of the male protagonist from childhood to adulthood...

      I like it, especially if you are interested in these partial histories. It is still the light-lifting that I particularly admire, how to insist on being a kind person. Be sure to...

      A surprise work, most of the time is like a lighthearted and witty comedy, but the ten minutes at the end of the film naturally show the tacit love between the male and female protagonists who understand each other without a word, and the respect and love for the ancestors who created a better future. quite...

      The protagonist grows into a clue, and the emotional change with the heroine is a sub-line. Watching a large or small figure in the punishment of the mafia, heroic sacrifice, from no sense of identity, to rise up to participate. In fact, it does not show the anti-black theme or social style very well. But an ordinary person's growing perspective, mixed with his own story to a large extent, is very special and interesting. The sense of comedy is just right. It's a little weird to rarely listen...
