The decades-long relationship between two Italians, from boys to middle-aged men.
Combines the earthy, rooted grit of Jack London with the vivid emotional landscapes of Elena Ferrante.
★★★★
Watching Felix van Groeningen and Charlotte Vandermeersch’s vivid, sweeping film about male friendship is like reading a satisfying novel… The film’s narrative turns may get a bit grandiose toward the end, but what precedes that is rich and moving.
★★★★
The Eight Mountains resonates most strongly in its pregnant pauses as tectonic shifts rumble below.
