However, this time I chose "On call" and "M. Son of the century." The cops and the dictator. About two years ago, it occurred to me that I hadn't seen enough information about Italy in the 1930s. It is interesting how social, economic, and political changes will be conveyed in this series, and how different segments of the population reacted to them.
I'll definitely see later
* It's time to reread the classics*
Doc, I don't like remakes, I'd rather review the Italian original.
I've been waiting for Pitt for a long time.
Also, in the recommendations, it would be great to make sure that the same anime does not appear if, for example, the user does not watch it (as in my case). Otherwise, I constantly see anime, doramas, etc. in the recommendations, but I don't watch it, from the word at all.
P.S. this is my personal opinion, which does not mean at all that such genres are not watchable by other users)
"Pitt" 50\50 by Sammari, I'll take a look too.
