Review of Red Wood Pigeon

This is a very weird movie, one that feels so specific that it really is risky to recommend it to anyone. It is quite surrealist and random at times, but remains consistent in being hilarious. And perhaps the random nature of the movie is trying to convey the condition of the main character, who feels lost as much as his political party.

There are many references to the Italian culture, ranging from politics to music, cinema and sport. Some scenes ascended to a cult status, such as the famous slap. Overall an entertaining movie, thanks to the eccentric characters that populate the pool where the (inner) action takes place.
