Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. 2122 It’s a bit difficult to work out what the plot is, exactly; it’s a coming-of-age story, and it’s also a fascinating contrast between the advance of the war and the determination of the band of elderly women to keep their integrity and their traditions. Even when they are taken into custody they want tea at four o’clock… The pace is good, the settings realistic. The women are exaggerated, but perhaps that’s how a boy would have seen them. While I found some of the action a bit tense, I appreciated the gentle humour in some of the interactions. All in all, we thought it an unusual and interesting evening’s viewing. Siamo a Firenze, negli anni '30. Delle signore inglesi di mezza eta' si incontrano per parlare della loro vita. Tra esse c'e' la vedova dell'ambasciatore inglese in Italia, che manifesta simpatia per il partito fascista. Intanto il regime diventa piu' dispotico. Arrivano le leggi razziali, lady Hester, incredula, chiede udienza a Mussolini, viene ricevuta per un te', ottiene assicurazioni, ma poi gli avvenimenti smentiscono tutto, le signore vengono internate come nemiche a San Gimignano. Arrivano infine gli alleati, la liberazione e' vicina: qualcuno vorrebbe abbattere le torri di San Gimignano , ma le vecchie signore si oppongono con successo sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

Based in part on his autobiography, director Franco Zeffirelli's Tea with Mussolini is a story about a group of British and American travelers on an indefinite visit to Italy in 1935. Luca is a boy living in Florence whose family situation is precarious at best; his mother has run off and his father has little time for him. Fortunately, he's a welcome guest with Mary, a English woman visiting Italy to soak up European culture. Mary and her friends enjoy the cultured, creative atmosphere of life in Italy, and their initial response to the rise of fascism is to arrange a polite meeting with Mussolini to make sure he and his soldiers mean well.
