“My Brother Is an Only Child,” is an Italian film that is directed by Daniele Luchetti. Netflix has it with subtitles, I found it to be a pretty cool flick. Of course the two lead men being easy on the eyes didn’t hurt. There are some lovely females throughout the film as well for all of the guys reading. It gives a feel for the social and political scene of Italy during some of its rough years of upheaval in the 1960’s. It focuses in on the dynamic between two brothers and their opposing belief systems but also includes love, sex, pain, and family relations in the scope as well. I enjoy how rich personalities are endorsed in certain cultures. I also enjoy how much room these cultures give to movement and expression of cooking, life, dance, sport, art, politics, family and passion.
In the spirit of Italy, one of the greats:
“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.”
Leonardo da Vinci – Italian draftsman, Painter, Sculptor, Architect and Engineer whose genius epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal, 1452-1519
