German SummaryWas in dem Thema "Familienleben" drinsteckt an unsentimentaler Romantik, an lebensfrischem Witz und schlichter Weisheit - hier ist es. Der italische Film "Väter und Söhne" stellt eine lange Reihe prächtig gezeichneter Gestalten vor: so den in Schönheit ergrauten Schneider und Schürzenjäger Corallo, den vor Sehnsucht nach einem Kinde seelisch verklemmten und endlich beschenkten Ehemann Marchetti, das egozentrische Frauchen Giulia, den charakterlich verkorksten Sohn aus gutem Haus und den sympathischen kleinen Alvaro aus der idealen Tierwärterfamilie Sanatrelli.
