Romanzo Criminale
THIS glossy feature has cult following written all over it. Borrowing from just about every cool gangster film there has been – it’s riddled with influences from Good Fellas and Scarface – it marries style with good looking blokes touting very large guns and talking in an attractively paced Italian lilt.
We follow three young hoodlums from the beautiful streets of Rome in the early 1960s as they create a powerful crime syndicate for the next 30-odd years.
The film also charts the political backdrop of Italy through the years – a country whose reputation for state-sponsored corruption can only be underlined by such well made and fun to watch films.
Candy
HEATH Ledger is the heroin addled junkie who is trying to get his life back on track while producing sonnets.
Starring the marvellous Geoffrey Rush and Abbie Cornish, the story tells of a Bohemian poet who creates his art while also indulging in copious amounts of drug taking.
Cornish is Candy, the middle-class girl who falls for a character who is loosely based on Dean Moriarty in Jack Kerouc’s classic novel On The Road. |
