This was the latest movie I watched. I came across this because my professor said that this was his all-time favorite. Knowing he himself is an avid fan of movies, I gave it a try... and IT WAS WORTH IT.
During the whole course of the movie, I never thought that this was first released back in 1988.. ON THE YEAR I WAS BORN. Time allowed me to watch this beautiful film after 22 years and 364 days of me being alive in this world. But still, I am thankful to have the chance of watching it.
Why do I love it? Simple, it has meaning... It has sense... It is deep.
This movie told me to dream... to do something to achieve these dream. Dreams that are simple. Dreams that are enormous. Whatever it is, believe. PERSIST UNTIL YOU SUCCEED.
I also love the fact that family are not just the one whom we are blood-related. Family inspires us. Sometimes, family pushes us away. Yes! because a family knows and believes that we are meant for greater things.. sometimes, we need others to believe in us first before we learn to believe in ourselves.
Alfredo: Get out of here! Go back to Rome. You're young and the world is yours. I'm old. I don't want to hear you talk anymore. I want to hear others talking about you. Don't come back. Don't think about us. Don't look back. Don't write. Don't give in to nostalgia. Forget us all. If you do and you come back, don't come see me. I won't let you in my house. Understand?
Salvatore: Thank you. For everything you've done for me. Alfredo: Whatever you end up doing, love it. The way you loved the projection booth when you were a little squirt.
WHATEVER YOU END UP DOING, LOVE IT.
