A classic

To watch this movie was pretty much like taking part in a marathon. Indeed, I watched the 5 hours version and I'm pretty sure I have never seen such a long movie before but it didn't bother me. Indeed, you don't get everyday the opportunity to watch such a epic movie on a mainstream channel. Unfortunately, they didn't broadcast the original Italian version but an English dubbed version and it did ... read more

"Blessed are the young who see what isn’t there!"
A masterpiece of a film with few flaws and a dynamic, fast-pacing storyline. 1900 explains clearly both the rise of communism in Italy and just how terrible fascists can cultivate into, as well as give us a first perspective view on the classes it affects.

Set in Italy, the film follows the lives and interactions of two boys/men, one born a bastard of peasant stock (Depardieu), the other born to a land owner (de Niro). The drama spans from 1900 to about 1945, and focuses mainly on the rise of Fascism and the peasants' eventual reaction by supporting Communism, and how these events shape the destinies of the two main characters.
Release date: 4 November 1977

"Blessed are the young who see what isn’t there!"

A masterpiece of a film with few flaws and a dynamic, fast-pacing storyline. 1900 explains clearly both the rise of communism in Italy and just how terrible fascists can cultivate into, as well as give us a first perspective view on the classes it affects. This film aligns completely from childhood to the senior years of our two main characters, and never once did I feel as if Novecento was dragging out its plot to make it more pretentious than it needed to be. Every part felt incorporated for a reason, even the scenes I wasn't so fond of.

To watch 1900 is to watch it in two parts, not the complete near 6 hour English overdub. So, in conclusion, if you have the attention span and are interested in films disc” read more

" Notes: Basically, it was a great epic about Italy but I don't think it was historically accurate whatsoever. However, this inaccuracy was done on purpose Indeed, I think it was more a poetic study about the class struggle as it was rather over the top and quite theatrical. Robert de Niro, here at the beginning of this career, had a rather thankless job though since he had to portray a coward and weak man instead of the tough guys were are used to see him play. He did a great job though but I w"
