Powerful film, because it is a huge historical canvas, with beautiful scenery, excellent actors and long timekeeping. Comparisons were made with Gone With The Wind, by the way, and the historical era is similar, only the scene is Italy. But there's one downside: the plot. It is interesting only for the first 30 minutes, everything else fits into one phrase about jackals and leopards, which is quoted in all reviews for the film. The correct definition of this film read in one of the reviews - film fresco. I would even, if I were to adjust for the duration of the show, call it a movie panorama. Just watch and contemplate. There is no plot intrigue, not even any drama of relationships here. That probably wasn't the goal.
