Der Postmann - Il Postino (Special Edition) (Blu-ray)

The shy Mario (Massimo Troisi), actually a fisherman on the small Sicilian island of Salinas, works in the 50s as a private postman for the legendary poet Pablo Neruda (Philippe Noiret), who lives here in exile. Impressed by his love poetry, "Il Postino" can be introduced to the high art of poetry in order to win the heart of the beautiful Beatrice (Maria Grazia Cucinotta) with Neruda's words. (1 Blu-ray)

The beauty of the Italian island world has probably never been captured on film more impressively than in the five-time Oscar-nominated masterpiece THE POSTMAN. The Ode to Love, directed by Michael Radford (1984), is one of the most poetic film events of the 90s, a frenzy of image, word and music that was rightly awarded the Oscar® for its soundtrack.
