***one small spoiler*** House on Garibaldi street has the vintage look and feel of a made for TV movie of that era. Having said that, the film is respectful to the subject matter and features many stars of that era in roles they took very seriously. The acting is well done, but certainly not Oscar-worthy, the locations are very true to the source, and the events depicted add significant drama over the book the film is based on.
One small gripe I have about the film, however, is that in one scene they show a paddle tennis match...the events of the film took place almost 10 years before paddle tennis was invented.
