- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of history and war-film fans and anyone interested in what war does to ordinary people. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost. A good follow-up to The Caine Mutiny or Catch-22.
- The mood
- Intense.
- The pace
- Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 42 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1966: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
"Andremo in città" (We'll Go to the City) is a 1966 Italian drama film directed by Nelo Risi. It is based on the novel of the same name by Edith Bruck, Risi's wife.
