Rainy day at the movies...
We awoke to our most intense rain yet. We were suppose to return to Giano dell'Umbria for day #2 of the Olive Oil Festival but we knew it had to be canceled. So after a day of catching up, we bundled up and ascended the hill to Cinema Corso for the newly released "A Natale mi Sposo".
"A Natale..." is a series of Italian comedies that is very popular- very over the top, almost slapstick at times with a number of jokes based around a guinea pig. This particular film has George Clooney's girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis, as one of the stars.
While silly, we enjoyed motivating to be out in the rain along with a large number of Spoletini. Going to the movies in Italy is a truly different experience. It is very social with the conversations continuing throughout the entire film. Needless-to-say, I didn't feel too guilty when I'd lean over to Steve and ask, "Do you understand what's going on?" several times! An agreeable way to spend a gloomy day!

They talk during the movie? Sacrilege! Hope you've been having a good few rainy days. We got a little Christmas tree (Christy's idea).
Well, I think slapstick is understandable in any language. You chose a good movie to go to. :) Except I am not sure that I would like to attend a movie WET!
So, the festival was rescheduled?!
