Fantastic as usual! I would like to point out only a small typo at 9:11 in the Italian subtitles, where the date indicated is 1921.

Congratulations again for the splendid and very complete work!

Amazing Filippo!! I agree with what you said in this part if you read the script for Napoleon you can find some traces in Barry Lyndon, like the card games scene. I really need to read what you wrote. Thanks for the link in description and I’m waiting for the next episode.

Brilliant presentation, brilliant research, brilliant conclusions. Have I said "brilliant" enough times? 😸

I'm looking forward to purchasing your next book - when it's published. Best wishes from Vermont to you. 🍁

I guess Tarantino can write original stories.
