Film director Michelle Danner has finished Principal Photography on The Italians, a quirky dramedy about family, love and Italian cooking. With Federico Verardi as director of Photography, the film finished shooting in LA. The film stars Matthew Daddario, Rob Estes, David DeLuise, Perrey Reeves, Olivia Luccardi, with Lainie Kazan and Abigail Breslin.

Written by Lisa Visca, The Italians shows the Vitali Family, an Italian-American family, as they meet their son’s new fiance who is decidedly NOT Italian. Danner states: “This is a deeply touching story about loving family, forgiving family and irresistible Italian food.”
