Vermiglio – 6

Beautifully framed and film story of a large family in a remote village in the Italian Alps toward the end of WWII. Except for the presence of a paterfamilias who looked like Sam Elliot, everything could have come from an Italian movie of the 1950s or ’60s. Its lack of originality produced a lack of interest in this viewer, and its slow pace made the ending seem long in coming.
