Basement buddies

Me and You (2012)

Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci this film based on the novel of the same name stars Jacopo Olmo Antinori and Tea Falco. A 14 year old Italian boy's plans to bunk off a school ski trip and spend a week living alone in a basement are interrupted by his older half sister.

Given the age of the protagonist you can easily guess this is a coming of age story and it does not offer a huge amount that is new to the genre. The story moves a long at a fairly sedate pace and does not really do anything wrong. With a director of the talent of Bertolucci things are handled well but there is not much that is remarkable about this film.


3/5
