8/10
Beautifully performed and profound
28 March 2003
"La Finestra di Fronte" is an thoroughly enjoyable movie without being easy or superficial. Rather the opposite. Featuring the two intertwined stories of Davide (an old man that witnessed the Nazi raids on Rome in 1943) and Giovanna (a young woman struggling with family troubles and a unchallenging job), the progression is complex, enthralling and romantic in the most philosophical sense of the word. The music is also remarkable. Not to mention the wonderful performance by Mezzogiorno and Girotti. Recommended.
