Forgive me, but i didn't get it...
I just enjoy the visual fantasy of looking back in the past...
but i really didn't understand the boy "peppino" in the beginning and in the end... is it just a dream? i supposed it was a dream

"its a surrealist ending.": -- that clarifies everything!!! and i assume that it was an open-ended film. Thanks!

i find the whole film to be surrealist.
many people that criticised the film said that it was confusing. I see it as defying conventional narrative and reproducing nostalgic images of a subconcious mind - I know the association may seem strange, but this film has more in common with Un Chien Andalou (Dali, Bunel) than people took care to notice.

I saw the trailer, and to me the film looks like it could be a TV advert for Dolmio Bolognese Sauce, cliché after cliché. It's probably a fairly good film, but still couldn't help being reminded of this image.
shareI don't find it confusing at all. Peppino, the communist activist was actualy a refference to the directors father. Remember one of his son with the camera who dreamed to be a cinematographer, thats refferens to Tornatore himself.
The kid in the school it was just an orphan who found the ring and dream the whole story. A Metaphore for the Old and lost Italy that the director remembers.
well, its more just what Americans like to think Italy is like.
Tornatore wants another Oscar...haha

The kid in school at the end was Peppino when he was a kid. You can see it afterwards, when he enters his old house when the workers are rebuilding it and finds an earring on the floor. When a worker calls him "thief!" he answers that it was his daughter's earring. The one she lost when he slapped her.

I watched the movie last night. When the little boy finds the lost ear-ring, and said it belonged to his daughter, that meant he was Pepinno, Tornatore's father. For me it made more sense, if the little boy was Tornatore himself...
