Boring & Frequent !

[MaximusQ8 · 18 July 2003]

Romantic Drama from the kind of "Romeo & Julliet" between Italian Girl and Arabic Man , the events running in algeria after the war end and before revolution start ... but in fact & It's the silly thing is that filming in Tunisia ! why?! don't ask! :)

• Totally un-useful cinematic , especially we know as well like these stories that often be boring & frequent ! So, what is the new thing between that Arabic-Italian LOVE ?!

Forget it ... immediatly .

While la Bellucci is a worldwide star doing nothing except showing her skin, Sabrina is widely unknown while building a rich and deep career! Here she plays the woman in chief for the all the family, as much for her young sister than for her husband and children. Set in Alger after WWII, the movie shows us, the french people colonist, as racist towards the native people! Indeed, we came to their land, take the best of it and segregated them: it's no wonder that they can't stand us in return! For sure it must have been an Italian production because in our country we don't like to be recalled this shameful past and so we don't make movies about it with the lame pretext to not reopen wounds!
