In the Mouth of the Wolf

Doing for his scruffy home-town what Terence Davies did so brilliantly for Liverpool in Of Time and the City, director Marcello blends footage new and old -- some of it very old -- into a dazzling, award-winning kaleidoscope of Genovese history. At its heart: one of the most unorthodox and moving love stories in recent cinema, involving a macho ex-con and a former drug addict. Prepare to be dazzled.
