The novel was a bit rushed and empty. The film tries to overcome the novel limitations by diluting the plot in over two hours. This move improves the quality of the original plot, but I still did not find the overall result really memorable. Nice sceneries, but perhaps a bit repetitive.

it's tough to think about this movie in any other language that isn't Italian. Some really small details would lose a lot of value when dubbed or translated i believe, thank God i was able to experience it in Italian. what a beautiful beautiful story. precious friendship, makes you crave for a similar one in your life. also shows such a beautiful part of the mountain life. I wouldn't last a day without internet, without all the commodities I'm used to, and yet this movie made me crave the pure essential life up there. true gem of a movie

Considering the importance of friendship in our lives, it’s somewhat surprising that there aren’t more movies devoted to this subject. But perhaps that’s because it’s difficult to make truly engaging films that effectively address this topic. Such is the case with this would-be grand sweepin More

"Pietro" (a scene stealing Lupo Barbiero) is a young boy taken by his mother from their home in Turin to a small mountain village where amongst the dozen or so residents he befriends "Bruno" (Cristiano Sassella). The latter boy lives with his cheese-making uncle, content to follow in his footsteps. More

This is an amazing and captivating study of the personal growth two men and their relationship over a forty-year period. It's never boring, in spite of the film length. The pacing is just perfect for the unfolding of kind of deep love that humans may have for each other.
