Reviews
"Although this is a story about a broken relationship, there's as much comedy as tragedy in the tale. Much of the film is very funny, even when we're feeling the pain of Lucia's anguish. Negri gets some standout performances out of her cast, particularly Rohrwacher, who shines on screen, and Foschi, who somehow manages to lend just enough sympathy to Giovanni to keep him from being a one-dimensional ass." -Cinematical
