TRIP TO ITALY

COMEDY | Unrated

Michael Winterbottom’s largely improvised 2010 film, The Trip, took comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon—or semifictionalized versions thereof—on a restaurant tour around northern England. In this witty and incisive follow-up, Winterbottom reunites the pair for a new culinary road trip, retracing the steps of the Romantic poets’ grand tour of Italy and indulging in some sparkling banter and impersonation-offs as they embark on a sightseeing trip through Italy, including Piedmont, Liguria, Tuscany, Rome, the Amalfi Coast and Capri.
