Leave your thoughts about The Way We Laughed.
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasTo watch Gianni Amelio's luminous The Way We Laughed is to reconnect with Italian cinema in all its richness of emotion and command of expressive gesture. |
| Boston GlobeDamon SmithA haunting, richly textured film that, like the Italian director's unforgettable Lamerica, dramatizes the plight of poverty on an epic scale. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael Wilmington... a masterpiece about filial love and the horrors of poverty. |
| OregonianKim MorganAn unusual, tremendously moving film that nicely assumes we can read between the pictures. |
| Charlotte ObserverLawrence ToppmanAmelio ... understands the loneliness, suspicion and uncertainty that plague immigrants in a land where they can't get familiar work or speak a familiar tongue. |
| Film ThreatSaul AusterlitzIt's a damn impressive trick to build a film around narrative frustration and not cause your audience to run out screaming. |
| User ReviewAndres MEsta claro que deberia haber nacido en Italia ;-) |
| User ReviewSam RI'm trying to write a presentation about this film and not getting very far so I'm biased against it in that respect but overlooking that, this is an engaging drama that takes place over 6 years, only showing us one day from each, so it's up to us to fill in the blanks and decide what has happened in between. This could have been a series of 6 films, each one dedicated to each chapter in the film, but instead Gianni Amelio skillfully weaves each chapter together and in no way condescends to or overestimates the audience |
| User ReviewPrivate UA visually meticulous film, possibly the best of an original director. All about is the complexity and mystery of humanity. |
