Never Too Late For Love
Director/actor Di Gregorio, known for gently comic arthouse hits including THE SALT OF LIFE and MID-AUGUST LUNCH, serves up sun-drenched provincial Italy as the backdrop to late-life romance. After being kicked out of his retirement pad in Rome, a dapper aging professor heads for the village he had long ago abandoned along with his inheritance, the ancestral castle. He discovers the crumbling place now the prized turf of a clutch of squatters, including an elderly chef, an unemployed handyman, and even the local priest. Settling in and achieving détente with his new housemates, the professor gets a jolt to the libido when he is introduced to a radiant and curvaceous local lady of a certain age (Italian cinema icon Stefania Sandrelli, acclaimed for films including Bernardo Bertolucci’s THE CONFORMIST and comedies DIVORCE ITALIAN STYLE and SEDUCED AND ABANDONED). In Italian with English subtitles.
