Cinema Paradiso (1988)

In 7 words or less: Friendship, love and the magic of movies.

Best bits? It's got to be the iconic montage. Oh, and a lovely Ennio Morricone Score :-)

Did it make you think thoughts? Yeah, nice thoughts! If you love cinema, you'll love this beautiful, romantic, thoughtful and sometimes sad film (ahem, cough - I've just got a little something in my eye...). Makes me want to try befriending a grumpy projectionist in my local flicks. We'll see how that goes...

Would you watch it again? Well, seeing as I dig it out every couple of years or so, yes!! An oldie but a goodie!

Rating (out of 100%): 89% A gem, maybe a bit sentimental in parts - but hey, sometimes that's exactly what I want. If you haven't got a bit of a lump in your throat at the end I think you must be a cold heartless bastard... or dead.
