A train travels across Italy toward Rome. On board are a family of Albanian refugees, a professor who daydreams conversations with a lost love, three brash Scottish soccer fans en route to a match, and a complaining widow traveling to a memorial service for her late husband, accompanied by a community service volunteer who's assisting her. Interactions among these Europeans turn on class and nationalism, courtesy and rudeness, and opportunities for kindness. (IMDB)

Three segments flow into each other, all taking place on board a train (and in terminals). I was slightly disappointed by Olmi's, which in any case was by no means bad, but it was the second and third parts - by Kiarostami and Loach/Laverty respectively - that shone. The film is tinged with tragedy throughout, but I'll cautiously call it a feel-good movie. If you're a fan of any one of the directors (or all three, like I am), I'm sure you'll like it.

Omnibus films are problematic. You get the feeling that the directors aren't trying their best. At least these three have styles that blend well together. Olmi's section was my favorite, with lots of unusual edits and flashbacks, and that "tone poem" feel to it. I liked the resolution to Kiarostami's segment, but it took way too long to tell such a simple story. Loach's was rather obvious and over-optimistic. A good film, but it won't stick with you for long.

Probably Kiarostami's segment is best.

The first segment is very dull, and very, very Italian, clunky dubbing and all, and Kiarostami's segment is good, but fairly nondescript apart from his trademark off-screen dialogue. I liked Loach's segment the most, even if its already on-the-nose message was made slightly worse by the non-professionals over-reaching their acting abilities. I'm being way too harsh on a movie that I actually enjoyed, but it's definitely less the the sum of its parts.

Nice montage or triptych, not sure which is the best description, showing how styles can conflict and blend in different ways. All three sections were well done.

All three parts are good.
