Crushed

 

From the Vine (2019)

Directed by Sean Cisterna this film based on the novel “Finding Marco” stars Joe Panoliano, Wendy Crewson and Paula Brancati. A Canadian business man has a break down, quits his job and goes to Italy to visit his grandfather's vineyard.

Mashing up a typical modern feel good film with echoes of Italian Neo Realism this is a pretty predictable and cheaply made film. The plot is nothing special, it could do with a few tweaks to improve it really. Not a bad watch but nothing memorable.

2/5
