Member Rating:  
Growing up in small-town Italy during the '60s and '70s, brothers Accio (Elio Germano) and Manrico (Riccardo Scamarcio) embody and celebrate opposing political stances, but share an impassioned love of the same woman that threatens to drive them to blows. Director Daniele Luchetti's political comedy Mio Fratello È Figlio Unico (aka My Brother Is an Only Child, 2007) observes the brothers over the course of 15 years, against the ever-shifting backdrop of tumultuous Italian sociopolitical history. During that time span, the siblings' loyalties will fluctuate; they will endure arguments and quarrels, and find themselves separated by the ravages of time and circumstance and reunited magnetically by the wisdom of age. In time, they will come to a firmer and clearer understanding of not only the differences but the similarities that they harbor. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

    GORDON B.

    Great movie for Italian history buffs. Acting is especially good. Maybe a bit too much fighting between the brothers throughout the movie..we understand that they have different political philosophies early on. This is a minor problem. Very good movie.

    I have no problem reading subtitles and have enjoyed many foreign films, but this movie was incredibly dull, slow moving and lacking in character and plot development. I can't see how anyone could rate it 4 stars!
