Three Brothers Reviews
A beautiful film that praises the simple life
It's hard to think of a more beautiful and poignant movie. Three brothers who have lived separate lives in different Italian cities come home to their father's farm for their mother's funeral. Contrasted with the urban rat race of the brothers' lives is the simple idyllic life of the father (played exquisitely by 89-year-old Charles Vanel).
The brothers arrive with all the anxieties and fears of living life in the big city: one brother is a judge fearful of terrorist persecution; another is a teacher at a school for delinquints who sees himself saving the world; and the third is a factory worker who won't be pushed around by the bureaucracy and whose marriage is failing.
This third brother brings his young daughter with him, and only she and Vanel appreciate the simple, saner way of life on the farm. Every scene is packed with emotion, and those scenes with Vanel, especially the two in which he remembers his deceased wife, are utterly beautiful. Watching this movie is a very moving experience, wise and lyrical, not soon to be forgotten. Excellent in every way.
Far beyond the tears!
This is an admirable Italian artwork and one the most mature films of this decade.
Three brothers, have decided to establish his own life and certainly the expected brotherhood simply doesn't exist. Due their father's death, they coincide in the Funeral and far beyond the grief and pain, this encounter will allow them to rejoin and somehow to contrast the ineffable differences and standpoints.
Powerful and superb film!
