He also did Nudo di Donna (Portrait of a Woman, Nude) which is available on video. I have not seen Bread and Chocolate on video, but I did see it on Bravo, the cable channel. Nudo di Donna is a sex comedy, and is a good film. Bread and Chocolate is also cool, especially the scene where the Italian puts makeup on and dyes his hair so he looks like a Swiss German and goes to a bar and tries to fit in. Unfortunately, there is a soccor game on, and his favorite team, the Italians are playing, and the people in the bar are NOT rooting for his team at ALL! Jeff Beer
