Le fil invisible

How can you make a dramatic movie that is also super funny? A movie that is light but also carries some heavy message and social awareness in it? Well this movie gives this a go or a try ... and it mostly succeeds in my book.

Yes it is rough around the edges, but that does not make it bad - you have to suspend your disbelief in certain areas and just let yourself go ... and be led by the really good actors and a good script that gives them things to do. Not all things are easy to solve - and life can be more than challenging. Especially when it is filled with prejudices and people who are stuck with certain ideas ... not able to understand ... or willing to learn.

Now clash those things with marital problems and coming of age issues ... you could say that the movie packed a bit ... too much, but on the other hand it is really good in balancing those things out and giving the characters room to breathe ... and us entertainment ... that aims for the heart - well mainly. Don't be ashamed if you shed a tear or two.

Loved this movie! And I just had to leave this review after someone wrote that the actors were bad LMAO what did you watch? Please stop watching movies they're not for you.

Very good film about family. Strong characters, acted well. Some great comedic moments. Made me laugh, made me cry and made me think.

Positive, uplifting and honest.

Bit over-dramatic in parts but overall this is a solid 8/10.

I watched this in the original Italian language.

Good choice to watch with teenage kids.

This was a very pleasant surprise. It's a nice change to have a film with gay characters that isn't about coming out. It's a serious film with a tremendous amount of comedy - bordering on farce. But has something to say. The acting is very well done. Just a very enjoying movie to watch.

Just a fun easy movie to watch. A great story told very heartfelt. The editing from the story flow to the background music very put together. And I thought the acting was really good by each character. Especially the leads. So don't over think it or analyze it. Just watch a nice little family drama.
