Giuseppe Tornatore directed this grand-scale portrait of life and love over several decades in the small town in Sicily where he was born.

While open to accusations of nostalgia, superficiality and indulgence the film is something of a feast for the senses.
A rambunctious family saga the kind they don't, and probably shouldn't, make any more. find out more...
