Pane e tulipani or Bread and Tulips is a wonderful Italian movie. The story is told in a way only a European can, you would never find such a movie in Hollywood. There are no special effects, no gadgets, no fast cars. Nothing you would probably find in it if this was a Hollywood production. The characters are the real stars in this movie, together with all the streets and canals of Venice.

The Big Bang Simon Singh Pdf Editor. It's about a middle aged, neglected housewife and mother who is left behind by her family on a bus trip. Her family doesn't even notice she's missing until two hours later. She decides to hitch-hike home and she meets different people. To one of them she says that she has never been to Venice, but that she really would like to see it. The man suggests to bring her to Venice instead of driving her home and so her adventure begins.

She meets some interesting people and in one way or another she always influences their lives. But not only their lives change, her life is influenced by it as well. I guess this must sound incredibly boring to some people, but it really isn't. I enjoyed the movie - which can be seen as a modern fairy tale or as a real story - a lot. I guess it all depends from the viewer. Do you believe finding real love, when it's not supposed to happen to you, could actually happen?

Personally I do, but I'm a real optimist, so perhaps that's why I liked it so much. It might also be because it gives a very optimistic view towards life. I guess the real strength of this movie lies in the fact that even after the movie has ended, you are still thinking about it. The story is simple, very universal, but also subtle and deep. I could talk for hours about this movie, but I guess you'll have to see it for yourself.

My advice to everybody, but especially to the people who love Italy as much as I do: Sit down, relax and enjoy. I give it a 8.5/10. Silvio Soldini's delightful comedy was a surprise when we first saw it in its original release.

On second viewing recently, 'Pane e Tulipani' looks still fresh. This is a film that seems to be telling us never be afraid to take a stand and to experiment. The film has the feeling of a travelogue because they way it starts, but in fact, it's more like a voyage of discovery.

When the film opens we see the Italian tour group at one of the ancient ruins in their country. As the trip continue, our eyes are set on the gorgeous Rosalba, the middle age woman who is among the passengers with her husband and two children. Soon we watch as the bus departing without Rosalba, who is late for it. She can't believe her eyes!

The nerve of the husband and children! How dare them! Thus begins a trip in which Rosalba will discover what a sham her married life is. Instead of going home to Pescara, she decides to go to Venice.

After all, she's never been there and on a whim she sets for the ancient city on the Adriatic. The next train will be the following day. She decides to play tourist. When she goes to the Marco Polo restaurant, she meets the sad waiter, Fernando Girasoli.

She has to do with a cold supper since the cook has been taken ill. This encounter proves to be the happiest thing that has ever happened to Rosalba. When she misses the train the following day, she goes back to the restaurant to eat. Since she doesn't have enough money, she asks Fernando if he knows of a place she can stay for the amount of money she still has.

Fernando, in a kind gesture, lets her stay at his small apartment for the night. Venice, alas, has played a trick on Rosalba. Suddenly she feels liberated from the doldrums of her married life. She is free to do what she pleases, whenever she wants, and calls home and tells them she is taking a vacation, after the kind Fermo, at the flower shop, has given her a job. The arrival of Rosalba plays heavily on Fernando.

He is a mysterious man who leads us into believing he is trying to end his life by committing suicide. Rosalba discovers things about Fernando, who, at the same time, is learning things about her.

We watch as these two become closer. But suddenly, when the detective Rosalba's husband has sent to look for her, finds her, she goes home, resigned to go back to being a housewife to a husband that cheats on her and mother to children that don't appreciate her. That is, until she gets the pictures developed from all the key moments of her adventure, especially of her happy stay in Venice. We know what she will do next! Soldini's film is greatly enhanced by Licia Maghetta, the intelligent actress portraying the middle aged wife. Maghetta wins us over because we realize she needs something else in her life. Bruno Ganz, a wonderful and resourceful actor, makes the most out of the taciturn Fernando.
