Family Diary (Italian: Cronaca familiare) is a 1962 Italian film directed by Valerio Zurlini and is based on the novel by Vasco Pratolini. Enrico, played by Marcello Mastroianni, is a struggling artist in 1945 Rome who recently loses his brother, Lorenzo (played by Jacques Perrin) and recalls their tumultuous relationship and examines grief, existentialism, and the importance of familial ties[1].
Described by Elliot Stein in The Village Voice as "the classiest 'male weepie' ever filmed",[2] Family Diary is an adaptation of the 1947 semi-autobiographical novel by Vasco Pratolini, Cronaca familiare, or in english Two Brothers.
At the 1962 Venice Film Festival Family Diary was awarded a Golden Lion for Best Picture Photographed by Giuseppe Rotunno, it has been acclaimed as one of Zurlini's greatest achievements.
