Flix in the Wet – The Final



Yesterday evening was the last screening of the indoor Flix in the Wet festival. Now that we are entering the ‘Dry’, the festival will be back to its original location, outdoors, screening movies for mobs of aficionados from the comfort of their deckchair under the Down Under starry sky. This last movie had to be one of the best I have seen coming out of Italy in years. Having shared an office with an Italian guy for over a year I was very familiar with the main actor, Antonio Albanese, but I was surprised to see this comedian (‘Chiu pilu per tutti’) playing a rather ‘dramatic’ role. Meanwhile, the main actress, Margherita Buy, was seen before in another excellent italian movie called ‘Le Fate Ignoranti’ (His Secret Life) and she turned out to be fantastically charming once more in this one.
