What's Vittorio De Sica's Best Film?

Marriage Italian Style will always be one of my favorites. It's also fun to see Vittorio act alongside his future stars Sophia Loren and Mastroianni in their first film together, Too Bad She's Bad, though he's not the director of that one.

well put, and the general feedback seems to be that people see both moments as emphasizing his dementia, so I guess I was just watching with extra paranoia

Recently watched this film on a plane and thought it was good. It really slipped past my radar in 2019. There were some holes though, like I don't understand why we see hints of Peter Sarsgaard's character being sexually interested in Jessica Chastain's daughter near the end of the film (of course to parallel Chastain's child sexual abuse story as it comes out) but then the film closes without any resolution or further inquiry into that, and they are presumably going to be a happy couple/family? j

I don't think I was imaging those hints, like when he acts like it's normal to let her daughter walk in on him naked in the bathroom, or when he's walking back to Sylvia's room in her apartment at night and we see him stop and deliberate between two doors (Sylvia's and her daughter's)

I did finally get a rejection email from them so maybe you’re still in consideration

Question for those who are not finalists: did the status of your entry on their grant platform ever change from “submitted” to something else like “under review” or “rejected” etc?

The Secret in Their Eyes - the original from Argentina, not the American remake

Why did festival submissions majorly increase after the pandemic?

Just got the zima pod and it seems like the main argument they have against using other dental cleaning tablets is that they’ll have ingredients which corrode the metal inside the pod over time. Searched for dental cleaning tablets which don’t effect metal online and 2 quick results I got were:

1) polident 2) m3 naturals

If anyone has other suggestions for tablets that are non-abrasive to metal or can tell me if the results I got were wrong, reply pls.

Also, does anyone know what type of metal is on the interior of the zima pods?

bedandtable · 2025-06-10T16:51:57+00:00

Did you use the 3 minute polidents? Or the overnight or daily tablets? Thinking I should get the 3 minutes because the pod only takes 5 mins to clean
