Passione" succeeds at being as entertaining as its subject matter, replicating the "avalanche" of sound.

Moveable Fest
3.5 stars out of 4 -- It's a happy ramble through the storied streets with Turturro as our guide, not pretending to be an expert; it's more like having a good friend take you to this place he really loves.
Chicago Sun-Times
...the kind of multi-genre mix tape that comes from an omnivorous musical palette. Yet all of it is Neapolitan, from a region that contains multitudes, and whose voices are raised, if not in unison, in harmony.

What Turturro, who appears in the film as a combination tour guide and impresario, has come up with is closer to a fantasia than a traditional documentary.

Rating: 3/4 --
Close to the sublime, especially if you have a thing for sensuous Italians of either gender unleashing ballads of soaring romantic masochism.

Product Description:
The rich musical culture of Naples comes to life on the screen in this musical-themed documentary from director John Turturro. Beginning with tunes written in the year 1200 and journeying straight through to the 21st century, PASSIONE reveals how artists have used song to explore every subject from sexuality to social protest in a lively series of short musically driven vignettes.
