I'm loving it! (It's still on now). Seeing all these little details of Italy, like they have that huge desert looking area! When I think Italy I think just some couple of cities, like it's just Venice and Rome. Not some place with things like big open areas like where the chase was in the beginning of the movie.
And the relief I felt when the boy got to a civilized area, away from that strange town that just seemed to have one woman gawking from a building, not bothering to help that poor boy running from the killer. Kind of like wow! There's REAL Italy! Not just phony tourist pictures but the REAL THING! That mall he ran into.... Looked just like Strawberry Square in Harrisburg PA! It was flipping me out. Thiink Italy and I think those marble or whatever buildings and market places or something, not a shopping center like HERE! Then, getting over the fun of looking at Italy and into the show, I was getting all full of emotions over it! The sadness and horror that boy seeing his family killed off. ( Just flipping on the show, I thougth it was some Mexican drug family war seeing that desert and people shooting each other like they keep doing now in Mexico!) Envy of the boy for not seeming frightened like sissy me would be if I were in that situation, while I pitied him for being so alone. Impressed by his just going to some city he was never in before maybe, and not being afraid as I would be in any city alone at 10 years old! Love for him comforting that frightened boy in the orphanage or whatever that place was he had to sleep in and stay at for a while. Fear of any shaggy haired man coming around, since they all look alike, and one of them was that bum who killed the rich boy and was after this boy. I had a good old time with the emotions which is what I like in a movie.
