CGiii Comment
Elegant and sensitive...
Two brothers...one gay, one straight...
What makes this unusual is that a stable, gay relationship is pitted against the disastrous roundabout of love affairs of the straight brother...
Tognazzi has produced a mature and intelligent look into the laxities of love - that fickle condition.
There is a gentle rise of emotion, culminating in a defining moment...for both brothers...
Expect to shed a few tears...for the story and for yourself...
Elegant and sensitive filmmaking.
