If you loved The Little Devil, try Nothing Left to Do But Cry

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Roberto Benigni, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Little Devil, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

playful

What Nothing Left to Do But Cry is

Medieval Italy, a clumsy time-travel stumble, a rusty suit of armor. Two friends from the 20th century meet a charming teen in 1492, amidst half-built cathedrals and perplexed peasants. Benigni and Troisi's comedic timing makes this fish-out-of-water tale a charming anachronism.
