Giuseppe Tornatore's Cinema Paradiso is a heartfelt tribute to the magic of movies. The film chronicles the life of Salvatore, a successful director who looks back on his childhood and his friendship with a local cinema projectionist. This is an intimate emotional probing into the depth at which cinema reaches and molds life. It touches a cinematically inclined heart with personal but universal films and serves as a poignant reminder of the power of storytelling.
