TV: Best of Youth · May 10, 09:58 AM

I have just completed watching the Italian mini-series Best of Youth that has been shown on BBC Four recently and wow what a remarkably beautiful and moving story it was. The character of Matteo alone made it a compelling watch. His character was incredibly mysterious and sad, yet very deep even if we were given little insight into what was making him tick. Best of Youth managed to completely draw me in and the characters were so well drawn and acted that I really began to care about them and share in their moments of sadness and happiness. It is 400 minutes of TV well spent.
