"Cinema Paradiso is a life-affirming ode to the power of youth, nostalgia, and the the movies themselves."
āRotten Tomatoes
"Still rapturous after all these years, Cinema Paradiso stands as one of the great films about movie love."
āWashington Post
Young Salvatore Di Vita (Salvatore Cascio) discovers the perfect escape from life in his war-torn Sicilian village: the Cinema Paradiso movie house, where projectionist Alfredo (Philippe Noiret) instills in the boy a deep love of films. When Salvatore grows up, falls in love with a beautiful local girl (Agnese Nano) and takes over as the Paradiso's projectionist, Alfredo must convince Salvatore to leave his small town and pursue his passion for filmmaking.
