If you had the rare chance to see 'The Best Of Youth' a few years ago, and was dazzled by it's very well written screenplay, here's another feather for your cap. 'My Brother Is An Only Child' re-unites the writers of that fine film for another tale of sibling rivalry. It tells the tale of two upper class Italian brothers, one just liberated from seminary school, where he was kicked out for bad behavior,and decides to become a neo fascist. The other, a dedicated communist. The volatile mix of passion (and hard headed)of the two brothers make for a panorama of social change in Italy of the mid to late 1960's. This is a beautifully filmed,smartly acted & crisply directed film that's well worth seeking out.
