Reviews (1)
How do you make an interesting film about a Sicilian family that fishes and decides to break away from the local clique that controls the market and fish on their own? How do you make the film interesting in two hours, plus an extra half hour? Luchino Visconti has obviously found the recipe, because this is surprisingly good.
