Abstract

The motion picture The postman, directed by Michael Redford, featuring as central character Massimo Troisi (already deceased) is an adaptation of Antonio Skármeta's novel, and it is about the friendship between the poet Pablo Neruda and the postman Mario Ruoppolo. It is a fictional story which stands out among the monotonous repetition of Hollywood productions, and it speaks of social exclusion with great poetic strength despite the technical simplicity used in its production.
