I recently watched this great 6-hour Italian film (originally a mini-series). It starts in the 1960s - sigh, Rome in the 60s - and follows a family to the present.
A.O. Scott wrote a good review - he's right when he says that it's as engrossing as a grand 19th-century novel. It's too bad that I couldn't find any good images, because a lot of the scenery, interiors, and clothes are beautiful.

This looks so good! I'm checking it out from my library today. Thanks!
0h gosh, i hope you like it. come back and tell me what you think, if you feel like it. it made me sad (and weepy) but in a delicious way - their lives have ups and down, but are so full and essentially happy.
6 hours. wow. sounds intriguing. i'd need some knitting or lollies to get me through. i've got the attention span of a tired 2 year old.
oh, i didn't watch it all at once. though.. i probably could have, if i'd had the luxury of a block of time.
Beautiful film, absolutely loved it. Thanks for the recommendation.
