Mambo Italiano is a 2003 comedy-drama/indie film, set in Montreal, Québec, Canada, and directed by Émile Gaudreault. The screenplay was written by Gaudreault and Steve Galluccio, based on Galluccio's theatrical play by the same name. The play/film is based on Galluccio's own life and experiences. Angelo Barberini (Luke Kirby) is the oddball son of Italian immigrants Gino (Paul Sorvino) and Maria (Ginette Reno), who inadvertently ended up in Canada rather than the United States of America. Angelo shocks his parents - and his sister, Anna (Claudia Ferri) - by moving out on his own without getting married, and, shortly after that, shocks them further still when he reveals that he's gay. But his boyfriend (and childhood best friend), policeman Nino Paventi (Peter Miller), isn't as ready to come out of the closet - especially not to his busybody Sicilian mother, Lina (Mary Walsh). Galluccio went on to create the television sitcom Ciao Bella, which explored similar themes of culture clash that are examined in this film and the play it was based upon. Claudia Ferri, who played Angelo's sister Anna in Mambo Italiano, played the lead role in Ciao Bella. LESS
