With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 46 min.
What might put you off
It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
