The most impressive is "Cinema Paradiso". Salvatore Di Vita returned home to attend Alfredo's funeral after becoming a director. "Childhood and Manhood” is accompanied by the memory of childhood and take us back to that time. After 30 year later, background music "Love Theme" shows Salvatore Di Vita's gratitude to Alfredo and homesickness...
Mr. Morricone tells with music, not just the story of Salvatore Di Vita, but the story of all of us.
