Tell No One

“Though it's hardly an original bone in it's body, I did quite enjoy this. That's probably a testament to the engaging effort from Josafat Vagni as the twenty-something "Mattia". He's gay and just about everyone knows - except his family. He keeps trying to pluck up the courage, but each time he's on the precipice something thwarts him. Then he meets "Eduard" (Jose Dammert) and falls hook, line and sinker. A solution, he thinks! "Eduard" lives far from Rome in Madrid, so no need to tell anyone? Sadly, his beau wants to meet his in-laws - and he wants to meet them with some sort of status too. Can "Mattia" get over his cold feet in time to save his relationship? There's a little help from a comedy narration as we follow this hapless lad awards a conclusion that quite effectively points out that secrets are really, really, quite difficult to keep - especially from a tightly knit family that has eyes and ears. Vagni has a charm to him and that does much to keep this entertaining enough as he battles some bigotry, deals with some daft misunderstandings and hopefully gets his man. It's maybe a bit contrived at times, and no, you'll never remember watching it but it's still an easy watch.”
