il funerino – from ‘L’oro di Napoli’ (1954)

During one of the seminars, I am currently attending, for cinema and photography by Platon Rivellis, I saw one of the six independent episodes of ‘L’oro di Napoli’ by Vittorio De Sica, called ‘il funerino’ (hope I remember correctly the italian title), meaning ‘the little funeral’.

It is one of these films that you do not want to say anything about: it would seem a sacrilege  doing so. If you want to see a sensitive, moving movie, try to see it. It is worth it even for this one sixth.

My rating: 10/10

PS. After seeing at a later date the entire movie, the rating remains! A must see!
