This week, the boys head to Sicily to try and save cinema with 1989’s “Cinema Paradiso”! This highly regarded film expresses the nostalgia of growing up in post-WWII Italy where a single movie theater was the only source of entertainment for a town. It ends with it getting torn to the ground, which is reason enough for us to grab some drinks and talk positively about the film, whether or not it’s too nostalgic and sentimental, and how it reflects our feelings of today’s cinema culture.
