His latest film would surely be worth seeing.<br />But it all goes to show how deep the division between north & south still is in Italy - that 'Christ stopped at Eboli' standpoint common in the north - doesn't it?Minniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17031126325323208656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-36097505385198109772009-09-09T01:15:25.326+02:002009-09-09T01:15:25.326+02:00Hi, Saretta.
