“Un Amore”- I recommend this Italian television series to those of you who enjoy romantic dramas!
I live in Europe so I was able to watch it and am aware that it did not air in the states (as most foreign series don’t) but I was told you can find the series to stream on those websites, and the version with the English subtitles.
If you do not understand Italian nor do you like reading subtitles do not waist your time, but if you do not mind, I will just say I enjoyed it.
No, it is not perfect, but I enjoyed the atmosphere the show created, the sexuality between the two leads, the acting is terrific and some of the scenery and cinematography are beautiful.
It is about two very young Italians who are traveling through Spain (separately), who happen to end up meeting and exploring together and really loving one another until they part ways. However, they keep in touch via letters and emails for over 20 years and always plan to meet up again but never do, until one day they finally do meet up again and those old feelings they had for one another 20 years prior come rushing back. I love the actors playing the older versions of their characters. The younger actors are great too but they look nothing like their older counterparts. At all. That has been the biggest criticism of this series from critics.
It’s a romantic drama and 6 episodes, and the series jumps back and forth between them while young to them now in their 40s.
The trailer below is in Italian but if you watch it on the YouTube app/site you can turn on English subtitles.
“Un Amore” aka “One Love” aka “My Love” (as IMDb has titled it).

R1 Normal People was about two teens who rekindle their romance 20+ years later?

Thanks, OP, and for the helpful alternate titles, too. Will watch for it on various streaming services in another part of Europe.

r4 Hence the "meets" part, implying it's only one element of the series. Reading comprehension is pretty important in this economy, dear.

R14 Marianne and Connell have known each other since they were children. They grew up around each other but never were friends. He was a popular athlete while she was a mousy nerd everyone bullied. Connell’s mother even worked for Marianne’s mother in Normal People.
It wasn’t the same.

OP never said anything about gay. Italian tv doesn’t have much gay anything.

OP literally provided a trailer link with a WOMAN as the screen. I’m confused why jobless retard thought it was a gay show.

Why would somebody here make an effort to watch something about breeders?
There are other European series that can be streamed in the U.S. that are about male-male relationships.
