This review is of the longer "director's cut." Reviewed by ccthemovieman-1 8 / 10 The Loves Of 'Toto' Beautifully ToldĪfter seeing this special edition DVD which shows the entire 174-minute film (in addition to the 121-minute one that most of us had seen over the years,) my rating of this film was elevated. A must-see!!!!īring plenty of Kleenex though-I cried a least 5 times! So.beautiful music, attractive stars, good acting, compelling story and some incredible romantic sequences. The film has beautiful cinematography and a haunting music score. The performances are all fantastic-especially by the gorgeous young actor playing Salvatore as a teenager. It also reveals a crucial surprise at the end.

This full version explains what happened between them and fleshes out the characters more. There's nothing wrong with that, but Elena disappears quite suddenly.
#TORRENT NUOVO CINEMA PARADISO TRUMPET MOVIE#
The cut movie in the US excised a lot of the Elena subplot and concentrated on Salvatore's love of movies. POSSIBLE MINOR SPOILER IN NEXT PARAGRAPH!!!! They are in love but she comes from a rich family and he lives in poverty. It basically is about his love of movies and the one true love of his life-Elena. He's born in a tiny Italian village and we see him as a little boy in the 1930s, an adolescent in the 40s-50s and an adult in the 80s. This story follows the life of Salvatore. Well, I was pleasantly surprised that this 3 hour version is better than the 2 hour one. Also, for this release, an extra 1/2 hour was added! I expected the worse. The directors cut (which was 1/2 hour longer) was considered a mess. This seemed like a stupid idea.there was nothing wrong with the original. This 1988 Italian film (released in the US in 1990), is back with a full 51 minutes added on. It also explores a young boy's dream of leaving his little town to foray into the world outside.
The film brings the audience through the changes in cinema and the dying trade of traditional film making, editing and screening. Under the fatherly influence of Alfredo, Salvatore fell in love with film making, with the duo spending many hours discussing about films and Alfredo painstakingly teaching Salvatore the skills that became a stepping stone for the young boy into the world of film making. Told in a flashback, Salvatore reminiscences about his childhood and his relationship with Alfredo, a projectionist at Cinema Paradiso.

A boy who grew up in a native Sicilian Village returns home as a famous director after receiving news about the death of an old friend.
