Big Night
This small gem-of-a-film co-directed by Stanley Tucci and Campbell Scott,
might be described as Chekhov Italian-style. Charming, economic and
beautifully observed, it is the simple story of two Italian brothers in the
fifties trying desperately, amidst the far-slicker competition, to keep
their restaurant afloat . Everyone's perfect, but Tucci and Ian Holm are
knock-outs. Warning: do NOT go on an empty stomach. The final meal is
orgasmic.
