The Family
December 1, 1987·2h 7min
Drama
Formal portraits, bookends in this 80-year saga, enclose the central story, which opens with the baptism of Carlo, a baby in his grandfather's lap, and ends with Carlo as a grandfather with a baby in his arms. And never once do we get out of the house, whose rooms provide structure. Comfort or passion? Carlo can't really decide until it's too late.
Director:Ettore ScolaCast:Vittorio Gassman, Fanny Ardant, Stefania Sandrelli, Andrea Occhipinti,
