This stars Marit Nissen as a flight attendant who falls for a passenger (Alessandro Tiberi), and follows their burgeoning but troubled relationship.  God this sounds dull.  So let&#8221;s move on swiftly to&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>La velocita della luce<\/strong>.  This looks much more interesting, which probably explains why it&#8221;s taken a meagre \u20ac11K, about a tenth of L&#8221;amore non basta.  It&#8221;s a small scale psychodrama about a young guy who spends his time driving up and down the freeway observing other cars.  He becomes obsessed with a Bentley he sees and its eccentric driver, but not everything is as it seems.  This has been desribed a blackly comic noir.

The cast includes Patrick Bauchau (from <strong>Creepers<\/strong> and, more recently, the TV series <strong>Carnivale<\/strong>).  Will it break out of Italy?  Well, I have my doubts, but it certainly looks more watchable than most of the rubbish that does so well domestically&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a couple of releases from Italy this week&#8230; L&#8221;amore non basta is yet another in the endless stream of romantic youth movies that&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6],"tags":[137,144],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=639"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.thewildeye.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
