Mambo Italiano (2003) Info from: http://www.imdb. com/title/ tt0330602/
Synopsis: Twenty-something Italo-Canadian Angelo Barberini and his former best buddy Nino Paventi become a couple and move in together. Life could be so easy if there weren't their families who cause a complete chaos when Angelo decides to come out of the closet. A hillarious comedy full of neurotic characters, witty dialogues and great humor. A compliment to the brilliant cast who makes this comedy a really unforgettable experience. Reviews: "Mambo Italiano is hilarious and light-hearted. It is a big mistake to try to read too much into it. Just sit back, relax, and laugh. It is one heck of a clever, funny little film, with a surprise ending. Betcha can't guess how it ends!" ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- - "For once gays are not presented as obnoxious drag queens or someone dying from AIDS. In fact, the two latter factions are not even present in the film. Instead it focuses on one man's humorous journey of self-discovery in both relations to his family, partner, and his own sexuality. "At the end of the film, you leave feeling very happy. Sure everything turned out for the best in the end, but sometimes we need films like this to remind just how fun and quirky life can be at times."
