REVIEW: EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE ITALIAN
01/31/09
Everybody Wants to be
Italian is a sweet, romantic comedy about a case of mistaken
ethnicity. In Boston’s North End, two non-Italians pretend
to be Italian to win each others hearts. The film was
declared “a real charmer, a sweet flavorful romantic comedy
with one of the year’s freshest and most appealing casts”
(Back Stage) and “like My Big Fat Greek Wedding, but
Italian…very funny” (OK Magazine). The DVD includes audio
commentary, a making-of featurette, cast auditions and
deleted scenes and will be available on February 3, 2009.
Everybody Wants to be Italian tells the story of Jake (Jay
Jablonski, Unrest); a handsome lovelorn fishmonger who after
spending nearly a decade trying to win back his
ex-girlfriend, becomes involved in a romantic case of
mistaken ethnicity. It's been eight years since Jake's
girlfriend, Isabella (Marisa Petroro, Reno 911: Miami), left
him, and despite the fact that she's now married with three
children, he refuses to move on. Fed up with their
depressive pal's unwillingness to let go of the past, Jake's
friends set him up on a blind date with a beautiful Italian
woman (Cerina Vincent, Cabin Fever) from Boston's North End.
Though Jake is convinced that such a woman would never
consider dating a non-Italian, a quick crash course in how
to fake it may prove just the trick to helping him learn to
love once again.
