This is the best movie ever!

I saw "Cinema Paradiso" more than 30 times. Each time I cry like a baby and each time I like it more. It's the best film I ever saw and I'll be seeing it at least 30 more times. Don't miss it! July 14, 2008

Can see over and over!

Such a great movie! What characters. You want to know them personally. A film to see over and over again. It will make your heart glad. July 1, 2008

Excellent Movie

Have watched this movie 4 or 5 times. Always wanted to buy this for keeps sake. Lovely story and beautifully scripted movie. I definitely recommend it not only to watch it but buy it for the library. June 9, 2008

Astonishing

There are few people who will know the depths of the loves portrayed in this movie: the complete, early love of an art; the selfless, stern love of a mentor; the young--in some ways unfilled, incomplete--love of an impassioned couple.

Perhaps the film's greatest gift--aside from the wonderful story you will see; the strong emotions which you will feel (tears will drop)--is that you will be shown, almost tangibily, these depths so you may, in your remaining life, attempt to fathom them yourself. May 21, 2008

cinema paradiso

Put off seeing this after all its original rave reviews because the plot seemed boring. boy in italy learns about cinema. well, good reviews were justified. i never get tired of this film and watch at least once a year. great character development and follows almost the entire life of a famous italian film maker. beautiful and a sweet insight into a boy's/man's heart, and life in pre and post war Sicily.
