Do you remember the first movie you ever saw? Most people do.We know from experience how influential movies can be on young minds.Each film is a Pandora’s Box,offering a new glimpse of the world—sometimes offering too much—and we’re suddenly fighting to preserve the beautiful innocence which makes our children…well,children.
“Cinema Paradiso”(1988)is the story of an unlikely friendship set in the heart of the sleepy Italian village,Giancaldo.The“heart”means the one thing Giancaldo possesses which makes its people come together-old and young,men and women-to the local cinema.Alfredo(played by Philippe Noiret)is the town projectionist.Having devoted his life to the upkeeping of the theater,he has never taken the time to make a family.To add to his responsibilities,he dutifully reports to the town priest(牧师,神父)whenever a new print comes.
Of the town’s greatest movie fans,none is more devoted than the young Toto(played by Salvatore Cascio).He spends his milk money orr tickets.He makes it his duty to persuade Alfredo into teaching him the secret8 behind the magic of film—for nothing interests him more than the movies.At first cold and removed,Alfredo does whatever he Can to rid himself of this kid.But upon learning unfortunate details of the boy’s home life,he begins to let the young man in on the secrets of his trade.
Filmmaker Giuseppe Tornatore does a masterful job of laying out a friendship that lasts for a lifetime.When Toto becomes a young man,he falls for the beautiful and unapproachable Elena.Alfredo,sensing the young man’s heartache,coaches him as Toto’s innocence slowly disappears.And it is Alfredo who recognizes Toto’s deep intelligence and decides,before anyone else,that Toto has outgrown Giancaldo.
It’s anyone’s guess whether Tornatore wrote“Cinema Paradiso”from the memory of his own childhood, but the ends of this movie certainly make that suggestion.“Cinema Paradiso”is a must see for anyone who has loved the bright flicker in the eye of a child—the light which tells us they are possessed of the innocence of angels.
