This movie can be disappointing purely because it gives the audience the impression of being fictitious, which is definitely not the case. Although some of the scenes may have been improvised to add flavour to it’s screen display. It is actually based upon the real life of the genius Neapolitan mathematician – Renato Caccioppoli who sadly committed suicide in 1959 (brilliantly performed by Carlo Cecchi). It is not a movie which can be taken lightly, otherwise you will easily miss the point. You really have to follow it carefully and it helps to know something about the academic works and life of this great charming genius of the 20th century to appreciate it’s full effect. I notice that the movie does not strongly stress the biographical features of Renato Caccioppoli such as the influences he experienced with Ernesto Pascal and that of Mario Picone. I do not recall any mentioning of his works to at least identify the character for his important published works such as on integration (area of mathematics). There was so much in the life of this genius which was not highlighted by this movie, which could have made it of superlative quality. But in all fairness, I guess that the essence of the movie was not so much on his life but on a man suffering in silence where others in similar predicaments can relate to. This was emphasized more towards the later part of his life where he had become very isolated, depressed and turned to drinking, as he did not fit in and lacked the compassion and understanding of those around him.
