Quotes
Lucia: Non mi ricordo mai se tu fumi, Bartolomeo.
Bart: Ma perché...? Bart. Per favore, per cortesia, te lo ripeto ogni volta, Bart.
Lucia: Comunque?
Bart: Nah, non fumo.
Lucia: Perché?
Bart: Ci dev'essere un perché?
Lucia: C'è un perché si fuma e c'è un perché non si fuma.
Bart: Vuoi sapere il perché? Ti dico il perché. Io non fumo perché al cinema non si può fumare e non potrei mai vedere un film senza fumare, se fumassi. Quindi non fumo. Bart. Hm?
Lucia: Grazie.
Bart: No, grazie a te. Sai qual'è la verità? È che è tutta la vita che aspetto di dire questa cosa e non me l'aveva mai chiesta nessuno. E guarda che è brutto avere una risposta bella pronta e nessuno mai ti fa la domanda giusta.
Lucia: Capisco.
Bart: Possiamo fare l'amore, adesso?
Lucia: Temo sia prematuro.
Bart: Ah, già.

ninety minutes wasted & i have only one life to live

oh what a terrible movie... It looks like the screenwriter/directed was locked in a room with a copy of Clerks and a copy of Chasing Amy and left there to rot for five years. Derivative, manipulative, full of wannabe "witty" dialogue that's absolutely stupid and pointless (with more of a hint of homophobia)... it was clearly made just because the male lead Stefano Accorsi (already a display of acting mannerism) helped pitching the script. A perfect example of why italian film industry is getting shoddier and shoddier.
