This is such a difficult film to describe in words because all of it is heartfelt emotion. This is a movie about the magic of the movies. It manipulates your perception of reality, suspends your disbelief, and ultimately either alter or affirm your view on life. It is the near-perfect blending of direction, acting, script, sound track, and cinematography. Ennio Morriconne's music is charming throughout, always totally in keeping with the images on screen and the intentions of the story.
Perhaps it was with this in mind that Tornatore made his modern masterpiece. Whatever the reason, the result is a beautifully nostalgic, utterly heart wrenching romantic waltz. Cinema Paradiso is almost certainly the most emotionally engaging film about a love of film ever made.
