Un adorabile testardo (1995)
L' importanza della famiglia: questo il messaggio del film che non è stato tuttavia adeguatamente apprezzato dalla critica e dal pubblico. È la storia vera di un uomo che, alla "tenera" età di settant'anni, decide di allevare suo nipote rimasto orfano. Inizia così un percorso di crescita psicologica al termine del quale le vite di entrambi finiranno, inevitabilmente, per cambiare.
