One review of听听Male Anxiety and Psychopathology in Film. Comedy Italian Style听蝉迟补迟别诲
"Bini's innovative approach to one of the most popular types of Italian cinema, commedia all'italiana, is a much-needed addition to the field. The author's thorough and insightful close analyses of works from the 1950s and 1960s expose readers to a wide variety of Italian comedies, many of which are not well known in the English-speaking world. His thesis that cinema anticipated the boom that arose from a crisis regarding national identity, exposed by the failures of fascism, is particularly compelling." - Mary Ann McDonald Carolan, Associate Professor of Modern Languages & Literature, Fairfield University, USA
He is currently working on his new book project on the representation of Trauma and Criminals in Italy and contemporary European societies.
