Ciao Aussie Chick + Phil
Marcello is convincing and fun. However he points out movies that are available in the International market - I do not believe Italians in Italy would pick the same set of movies ( I would not ).

Pane e Tulipani for example is a recent comedy that is available in the international marked and he does not mention - With Troisi the Postman was good but Ricomincio da tre was a masterpiece etc .... Ladri di Biciclette: I think it is dated and slow but I have not seen it in a long time - I rather watch comedies however.

PS My preferred Australian movies is Strictly Ballroom.

thanks Paolo for your reply, Yes Strictly Ballroom is a great musical and dance script very popular and entertaining. The recent Australia movie with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackson truly shows the authentic Austalian panorama and history it's magnificent and I can see why all those years ago my father fell in love with Australia never returning to live in Italy.

AussieChick. I recon that the movie "Australia" was a flop, all because of Nicole Kidman. What a woos she is, all blue eyes and blond hair. They shoulda got Barry Humphries to play the part. Then we would have had a movie!

Italian movies are far and few between on SBS, don't you think, even though Italian is the second most spoken language in Australia.

Hi Aussie Phil you are possibly right with Barry Humphries as the leading female would have given Australia the movie a comedic appeal. I was'nt aware that Italian is the secound most spoken language here in Australia. SBS does'nt show much of anything of great sigificance other than the daily news of the current demografic majority of migrant's in Australia.
