AN ALMOST ORDINARY SUMMER
Croce e delizia
Dir. Simone Godano
2019, Italy, 100 min
Italian with English subtitles
Castro Theatre, 429 Castro St, San Francisco
Two incompatible Italian families-one sophisticated, bohemian, and neurotic; the other narrow-minded and loud-are both equally stunned when their middle-aged dads announce that they are getting married… to each other. Can the genuine love between silver fox Tony and sensitive bear Carlo survive the scheming of their children to derail the nuptials? It’s La cage aux folles meets Mamma Mia! in this delightful and surprisingly touching Mediterranean charmer.
