Just a good trip to Italy
'Under the Tuscam Sun' can be exactly defined by this one line summary of this present review. The movie is just a good chance to make a trip to Italy while seated in front of your television and DVD set. In fact, this trip provides to the viewer good locations (especially the ones taken at the city of Positano, in South Italy), a brief look at the habits and style of life in this otherwise fascinating Mediterranean country. But that's all.The movie is just another bittersweet story of love, friendship and delusions without anything new to be taken or even a minimal original approach to such pondering themes. Many viewers will certainly find this movie amusing and lighthearted - and this is a correct mode to describe this one - but it's shallow characters and routine treatment made the final outcome just a passable but unnoticed experience. Beautifully filmed, with good locations and a fine piece of work of photography. Famous Italian director Mario Monnicelli made a cameo as the old man with the flowers.
