Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A sometimes appropriately frantic look at the stormy affair between Italian poet Dino Campana (Accorsi) and emancipated writer Sibilla Aleramo (Morante). Freeing herself at great personal cost from a difficult childhood and marriage, Aleramo writes to the turbulent Campana, almost a decade her junior, leading to expected trouble after the initial passionate encounter. Set during WWI, it's well staged and dramatically persuasive, but offers little fresh on either matters of the heart or the boiling frottage of two literary heavyweights.Author: GE
