 It is in this record, the very first one, that many of the 'maestrone’s' masterpieces are contained, albeit with a rather sparse arrangement, reduced to the essentials.

 'Auschwitz', accompanied only by the guitar and harmonica really conveys the idea of concentration camps.

This review highlights Francesco Guccini's debut album Folk Beat N.1 as a raw but powerful introduction to his talent.

Luc Besson’s Léon explores the unlikely relationship between a hitman and a twelve-year-old girl seeking revenge. The film captures themes of innocence, survival, and humanity amid a gritty New York backdrop. Standout performances by Jean Reno and a young Natalie Portman elevate the film’s emotional impact.

 He manages to make a very funny film without ever making it stupid, and that’s no small feat.

 Music, poetry, comedy, and reflection contained in a single film, which touches, if not reaches, in my very humble opinion, masterpiece level.

Gabriele Salvatores' 1991 film Mediterraneo skillfully combines comedy, drama, and intelligence to tell a compelling WWII story. Set on a peaceful Greek island, isolated Italian soldiers adapt to a tranquil life, sparking both humor and reflection. With memorable performances, especially by Diego Abatantuono, the film delivers a strong nonviolent antiwar message. Considered by the reviewer as close to a masterpiece, Mediterraneo rightfully earned its Oscar recognition. Discover the heartfelt blend of humor and history—watch Mediterraneo and experience this acclaimed Italian classic today!
