The Profile

Italian film director and screenwriter, best known for directing Santa Maradona.

Santa Maradona (set in Turin) features Stefano Accorsi and Libero di Rienzo; the soundtrack includes music by Motel Connection. The DeBaser review criticizes the film's formulaic romantic plot and praises the lead actors while calling the ending a missed opportunity.

Spleen's DeBaser review criticizes Santa Maradona as a tired take on 30-somethings unsure about life, likening it to Muccino's films. The reviewer praises the actors (Accorsi, Libero di Rienzo) and the Motel Connection soundtrack but faults the film for falling into a formulaic love-at-first-sight plot and a nauseating happy ending. Camera moves and music are seen as TV-ish. Overall judgment: missed opportunity (rating 2/5).

Notable Quotes

❝ Enough!!! I can't take it anymore!!! I can't take it anymore that in Italy, besides the usual four nonsense, every now and then the usual movie about 30-somethings who don't know what to do in life comes along: and Santa Maradona is one of those films, at first glance it seems like an extension of Muccino's movies.
