| Description: | ll giovane favoloso (Mario Martone, 2014). Hailed as the finest Italian writer since Dante, Leopardi viewed nature as all-conquering,all-consuming and geared towards disaster-at least for the human beings that it holds in its grasp. Mario Martone’s handsome period biopic paintsthe poet as an intense and sickly youth, given to prostrating himself onriverbanks and peering so closely at books that you fear he might lick them. Leopardi is pulled by agony in one direction and ecstasy in the other. |
