The divine comet: the review of the film by Mimmo Paladino

LTO DIVINE COMET
Type: awesome ✦✦✦
Director: Mimmo Paladin. With Toni and Peppe Servillo, Nino D’Angelo, Sergio Rubini, Francesco De Gregori

A family wanders between stations and villages of an archaic south in search of a house number that cannot be found. A station master waits for trains to pass in a dilapidated station. Paolo and Francesca, Virgil, Count Ugolino, Giordano Bruno meet on the street while the Magi multiply.

«Anyone can fit in the crib» replies the father to the child’s question. Mimmo Paladino, following the journey of a personal comet, pays homage to the great poet and to his own Hellattempting the fusion between popular art and avant-garde.

Many friends have responded to the artist’s appeal for this one walk among symbols and allegorieswhile the band plays You come down from the stars.
