Is it spoken completely in Italian?

[–] mastermum 14 years ago

Italian with a bit of Russian and if I recall a few words of English in a business meeting.

One short Russian conversation with her son and 2 short pieces in English with Indian American business partners (who says he is an Indian American but not an American indian, not that anybody whould mistake him for one, with his Sikh headwear), one in London and later in Milan when he talks with Emma, who does not speak English (in the movie) ,so is being translated to.

Did the son speak Russian with the mother at the earlier part of the movie?

[–] Julia-3 14 years ago

Yes, there are a few scenes of them talking in Russian. One of them - right in the beginning of the movie.

Thanks, Julia-3. Shame on me, I should do better in being able to at least distinguish the two very different languages. Did Edo or Emma sound fluent in Rusian?

I don't believe so. The scene where she has an argument with her son by the pool she is speaking Russian to him.
