Directly from the Turin Film Festival 2018, here comes in our rooms Drive Me Home, latest work of director Simone Catania.

Drive Me Home is the story of two childhood friends. It is the story of Antonio (Vinicio Marchioni) and Augustine (Marco D'Amore), which, in adulthood, Both have sought their fortune abroad. It's a road movie that takes off from the Netherlands, until you get deep in Sicily. A trip to the rediscovery of an old friendship and, mostly, towards a new awareness about what you most want in life.

Nothing new? undoubtedly. And indeed, already from a first, cursory reading of the synopsis, one senses immediately that this Drive Me Home is a job with many challenges to its rules. And not just little pearl originality of the topic.

After a long time ellipses that since the childhood of the two protagonists brings us to the present day, when both are abroad, all quite hard to take off. And so, along the highways of Europe (Augustine's character works as a truck driver and Antonio will take advantage of his passage back to Italy), for at least half an hour does not happen practically nothing significant. While small aspects of the script and sporadic encounters, each of which more or less relevant, the decidedly lackluster tone pervades this beginning the second part of Drive Me Home.

When, therefore, We are faced with a problematic script, what you are needed so that the entire work can save you - in addition to a direction at least clean - a great job actor. E, Fortunately, Vinicio Marchioni is that Marco D'Amore work. The chemistry that is established between the two is, perhaps, the most important element of the entire feature. A feature film, most likely, already shortly after the vision, will fall into decay.
