Mateo is probably my most relatable character ever on screen, its literally the "literally me". I love this character so much and at the same time I also wanna work on myself hard to be the person like Nichola. This story is genius-written
Il cinema italiano ci ha regalato dei lavori di assoluta grandezza, a livello mondiale. Questo è uno di quelli. Forse il film italiano più bello di sempre.
A man have big potential for being successful in life, aware of his own potential, adored from everyone when he was young. He's just unsatisfied from himself, feeling pressure, he's able to see that he's wasting a potential and have an unstoppable angryness to life. Not able to integrate ongoing life, not able to focus on socializing. He thinks it's too late to be a normal man after all. End of story is ending the story.
quando ho visto il film al cinema a Parigi anni fa era in 2 parti... l'attesa per la seconda parte... e quant'ho pianto e piango ancora quando rivedo certe scene
La contrapposizione della festa (non dico gioia) che rimanda le immagini della televisione, la contentezza della famiglia ed il dolore solitario che lo portera' al suicidio
What amazing and beautiful series it was, a true masterpiece! That sequence was so shocking but realistic, never forgot it. Thanks for the video, I miss that series.
Bertolucci si era riproposto di girare il seguito di 900 coprendo il periodo 1945-2000 in Italia poi non se n'e' fatto niente ... "la meglio gioventu'" copre egregiamente quel periodo storic
La solitudine quasi autoimposta, arrabbiato con se stesso, quasi a trovare un colpevole che non c'è, quella telefonata non riuscita. L'impossibilità di vedere la luce. Terribile
Wow, i've seen this movie 13 years ago and now watching this scene again. I saw it in the news that fireworks was banned but italians are used it heavily this year too. When i remember the fireworks i've also remembered matteo.
I watched this scene over 15 years ago, kind of been touched and marked by it... so much as of how... Been throuh it all and here i am at age 40 seeing with a whole new perspective...should i ?

I never understood why Matteo committed suicide. How did he suddenly become so tormented and distant from his family? The movie does not show it and I don't get it. He was the person whom I was most interested in throughout the movie and after he disappeared I almost felt like I didn't want to watch it anymore. Can anyone explain?
I'm not sure if others agree with me, but I think Matteo was struggling with his sexuality. He never took home any women, was never really interested in women. The only exception was Mirella, but in her case it was more her chasing him than him chasing her and I feel like he was eventually pushing her away because he couldn't care for her the way she did for him. The scene with the drag queen/crossdresser was what really gave it away for me. Sure, he did seem invested in Giorgia as well, but I think that was just his caring nature - it never seemed to be romantic. So if he were indeed homosexual (or bisexual) that would've been a no-go; it was the 80's and especially in Catholic Italy. All those pent up emotions he couldn't express because he couldn't express himself how he wanted to could also explain why he had these bursts of anger at times. Maybe I was looking too much into it, but this is what it definitely felt like to me.
Ruben van de Put What you said is entirely plausible and would make a lot of sense. It’s one of the things that make this so beautiful and transcend time and cultures, that it leaves room to create one’s own conclusions, satisfactory or not, as it is in real life
@@RuuBjAh1 thats an interesting theory but honestly it would make his character less interesting for me. what I liked about him was how realistic the depiction of depression was. at first it came out of nowhere (the first moment I realized he might kill himself was when he was already at the window), but then in retrospect it's all there and it's kind of obvious, and you can only imagine how much guilt his loved ones must carry for not having noticed when it was so "obvious" looking back. Him not bringing any women home doesn't mean he is a repressed homosexual/bisexual, that would be almost like an "easy answer" from the film and would detract from the impact of his storyline in my opinion. he just didn't bring any women home because that's just who he was, he was just introverted. Sometimes these very preconceptions of how someone should act can in themselves drive someone to depression. perhaps he himself thought he should've had a different life (be more outgoing, meet more people, "bring women home", etc). it all felt so true to life because the film doesn't really give us any simplified answers or hints at a specific root of the problem, often there isn't one
@@RuuBjAh1 Also, the main reason why Matteo suicide: he felt himself as a failure. He was adored by his mother when he was young, very academically inclined (he is seen in the beginning of the film rejected to help his father so that he can focus to study, in contrast to Nicola). He is also an idealist. But his failure in keeping Giorgia from being arrested made him "lost the cause", after he sacrificed his university path and his own future just for her. After this pivotal event of his life, Matteo didn't pursue what he really wanted, he instead join the army. He constantly go against what he really wanted, in contrast to his brother Nicola who is going to what he wanted and became psychologist (whom by fate eventually meets again and saves Giorgia). Matteo failed to see his father before his death, despite he wants it (but too late). Even Matteo introduced himself to Mirella in Sicily not as "Matteo", but as "Nicola". When he argues and broke up with Mirella at the police station, he even said the exact words "I'm a failure". That's why Matteo is always seen in frustration.. angry with his own life, as an idealist, his current state of life is far from what he expected. In this New Year Eve scene, after broke up from Mirella, he realized that he in his mid 30s is basically wasting away his potential and his life.. (remember the poem he delivered to Giorgia at the library? About 70 years of life).
Anche voi avete notato che ci sono dei tagli nella versione DVD , in confronto a quella proiettata in rai e visibile su raiplay ?

I'm sure there is also a Nicola in you, good luck 🙂
@@Feanor026 Thank you. Good luck to you too

Un film che ha lasciato un segno nella mia vita, questo ed anche Otto e mezzo di Fellini

L'ho visto parecchie volte e ogni volta mi piace!

Esta escena es impresionante. La profunda tristeza de Mateo y el contraste con la alegría de un fin de año

Crisjapop cris I miss it too.
Sara' pure un film lungo 6 ore.... ma che ore!!!

L'ultimo sguardo di Matteo a Nicola... un groppo in gola
Capodanno è un momento terribile per chi crede di essere solo
Immagina passarlo da solo all'estero.
Tutte le feste in genere portano con sé un velo di ipocrisia che in certi casi ti spinge all'auto isolamento
La solitudine quasi autoimposta, arrabbiato con se stesso, quasi a trovare un colpevole che non c'è, quella telefonata non riuscita. L'impossibilità di vedere la luce. Terribile
A volte sono così vicino a questo personaggio...
@@tommasovasta8323non dimenticare che sei bello ed incredibile amico mio
So lonely...
so much lonely just like everyone else

Yes, you are right, fireworks are banned in Italy this year, yet people foolishly keep shooting them. Thanks for your comment, though!
@@Innuband thx for the upload actually. 😭😭😭
Why Mirella hesitate to pick up the phone. It might change the course of the story. 😢
Il più bravo di tutti. Che tristezza
Un fratello. Lo vedo e piango.
I watched this scene over 15 years ago, kind of been touched and marked by it... so much as of how...
Been throuh it all and here i am at age 40 seeing with a whole new perspective...should i ?
Che profonda tristezza
Matteo!

Quando Gianni Morandi dice "ciao", Matteo si butta :-((((
Eh, me sarei buttato pure io...

As you said, Matteo was chronically depressed and tormented and a loner, too. And despite the great family he had, that was his nature.
I'm not sure if others agree with me, but I think Matteo was struggling with his sexuality. He never took home any women, was never really interested in women. The only exception was Mirella, but in her case it was more her chasing him than him chasing her and I feel like he was eventually pushing her away because he couldn't care for her the way she did for him. The scene with the drag queen/crossdresser was what really gave it away for me.

Mi scuso se alzo il pollice su un mio commento.....non leggo i nomi di chi li scrive
Anche voi avete notato che ci sono dei tagli nella versione DVD , in confronto a quella proiettata in rai e visibile su raiplay ?
Ad esempio quando : Carlo , Nicola e il loro amico siciliano ( purtroppo non ricordo il nome) stanno preparando la brace per la carne e nello sfogliare il giornale si accorgono che Giulia è libera .
Ecco nel DVD questa scena è tagliata .
Grazie per aver letto .
