Italian Cinema

Cinema Paradiso As the long, hot summer days approach, our thoughts turn to summertime movies, and for Dream Italia that means Italian films. What better way to relax than to rent an Italian language movie, curl up with someone you love, and hear the melodious Italian language, see the gorgeous scenery of Italy, and understand some of the dynamics of Italian life.

Italian films place a heavy emphasis on human relationships and tell simple yet profound stories of life. The classic Fellini, Bertolucci and Zefferelli films are always on our list, but today we suggest a few of our very favorites. Dim the lights and turn up the sound...
