Wolfe opens the New Year on Jan. 21 with the
domestic DVD debut of the Italian box office sensation from writer/director
Simone Gordan’s An Almost Ordinary Summer.
In the midst of great loss, Carlo (Alessandro
Gassmann — The Mongrel, An Italian Name, Transporter 2), finds
love and solace in a very unexpected place … with Tony (Fabrizio Bentivoglio — Human
Capital, Forever Young, The Invisible Witness) a
free-spirit, married with a family, but they are just people he takes care of
(money, villas, etc.).
When Carlo’s grown son, Sando (Filippo Scicchitano),
and Tony’s daughter, Penelope (Jasmine Trinca), each find out what Carlo and
Tony have planned, they team up in an effort to break things up.
Mismatched families, a comedy of errors and a lovely
Italian setting, An Almost Ordinary Summer should
have been titled, “A Nearly Perfect Summer … Except For Our Scheming Kids.”
An Almost Ordinary Summer is
presented in Italian with English subtitles.
