- A preposterous amount of heavy labored breathing 😤😤😤
- Had the pace of those silly little escaping

“Our faith is a living thing precisely because it walks hand in hand with doubt. If there was only certainty, and if there was no doubt, there would be no mystery, and therefore no need for faith.”
Incredible, just incredible.
I HIGHLY recommend this film.
This film solidified Luca Marinelli as one of my ALL TIME favorite Italian actors, and this film showcases how extraordinary his acting really is.
Adapted from the book "Martin Eden" written by Jack London, the script stays pretty faithful to the original text. They did a great job exploring the clash between individualism and collectivism by infusing politics and poetry into one.

(SOOOOO GOOD)
will never…
Soooo I probably should not have seen this film when visiting Barcelona, as it was in the original language which was mostly French and ofc the subtitles were in Spanish. 😅
And although I took 4 years of Spanish and could pick up a few things... Spain Spanish definitely has its differences 😭
All in all I have concluded that I prob need to watch it again considering I didn't even realize the kid was blind until the very end. But the actors did an incredible job! It was a very engaging plot even though I was clueless!
