Movie Reviews of Assunta Spina/The Last Diva

Movie Review: A great silent.
Summary: 5 Stars

Francesca Bertini was the first diva of Italian movies. She portrays Assunta Spina, a Neapolitan woman in love with the passional Michele. The acting is wonderful (and incidentally, much less exagerated than the usual acting in most silent movie), almost realistic - and the movie itself is shot in the streets and houses of Naples. A gem.

Equally interesting is the included documentary, with scenes from other movies and an interview with the old Bertini, in which she watches and comments the movie (sometimes filling in the lines for the silent scenes). In the interview, she plays the role of the aging diva, but joking about it at the same time. Highly informative for lovers of silent movies, and highly entertaining.
