Los Angeles Premiere! THE BIG HEART OF GIRLS (IL CUORE GRANDE DELLE RAGAZZE), 2011, Filmexport Group, 85 min. In Pupi Avati's wonder-filled trip down memory lane, Alessandro Haber narrates in voiceover his 1930s upbringing with the older brother he ardently admired, playboy Carlino (Cesare Cremonini). When Carlino falls for Francesca (Micaela Ramazzotti), a pairing that's met with intense familial objections on both sides, he woos her into marriage but is soon back to his philandering ways when tempted by a former lover (Isabelle Adriani). A pillow-fluffy and candy-sweet romp through complications of the heart (and other body parts), this romantic dramedy is as charming and irresistible as Carlino himself. An official selection of the 2011 Rome Film Festival, and Ramazzotti was awarded the Best Actress Award by the Italian film critics union (S.N.G.C.I.). In Italian with English subtitles.
