THE REVIEW
“This film gave me everything; over the course of a year, everything that can happen in a director's career happened to me: from the darkest and most desperate failure to the rosiest and most joyful success. It was like making ten films at once, a deep and complex experience to which I owe everything. It's a film constantly in my life, it seems impossible to me that so many seasons have passed; every time I go somewhere, they ask me about the film. A large part of this success is also due to the music; without Ennio Morricone, it wouldn't have been the same.”
Giuseppe Tornatore is the creator of this masterful masterpiece, certainly his most famous feature film, one that earned him the Oscar for Best Foreign Film and several other awards.
The following piece is a Jazz interpretation of "Love Theme", the track written for the film by Andrea and Ennio Morricone.

Nuovo Cinema Paradiso best captures the cinema of the past, its history.
This is a unique film that talks about childhood and the innocence of youth.
