Though the film has received decent reviews and a lukewarm, if not sometimes negative reception, I can only hope that Amenta’s future projects aren’t so message laden and poorly constructed. While it may have a seemingly noteworthy subject matter, The Sicilian Girl is as trite as television movie of the week and reads as a narrative about a girl that tattled because she felt entitled to better treatment for her family.
