Why didn't that little guy declare love for Malena?


he reminds me of myself. He should have bought her wedding ring and offer her 500 000$ and said to her face to face "marry me or I'll kill myself I can't live without you"

reply

he made the same f_ucking mistake as me. the only difference is that she is my age. neither younger nor older than me

reply

nobody has ever loved me everyone is probably laughing at me I'm completely lost there's no hope I know that I'm afraid to die

reply

Bro, Get some help. God Bless.

reply

Loves over-rated. You seem obsessive and in fantastical thought, I hope you get help as well.

Better question. Why did he not once (Well, once when he helped her pick up the fruit off the ground), did he try to help her? I just wanted Renato to get a job, like a paper route, to bring her bread secretly. I was growing angry nearing the end of the film for him not finding the courage to step in, at least as a friend.

same here, pissed me off.

reply

The same reason Renato didn't have the courage to approach Malena's husband and and also why he didn't post all those countless confessions he wrote for her; Renato was a coward. You got to understand that Malena was like the forbidden apple to Renato, something he could never have.

And come on, that paper route comment and sneaking her bread... a bit cliche is it not?

how about it, JimmyJulliano? you ready to start flooding this board with minor character quotes?

reply

because he's a boy.

reply

He was in love with her, but he was just a teen and probably thought she would laugh at him.
