At a surprise party for his daughter, a randy Italian homeowner studies a neighbor’s wife through the sliding glass door and describes all the ways he’d like to violate her. In the bathroom, his 14-year-old son sits with his best friend, studying the hardcore porn sites listed in the browsing history of dad’s cell phone. A couple doors down, a pregnant teen senses the prepubescent kid’s sexual curiosity and taunts him with a series of increasingly provocative acts.
It’s a grim view dramatized in their sleek 2018 debut, “Boys Cry” — a largely nocturnal, fluorescent-lit cautionary tale in which two teens turn a fatal hit-and-run into an audition for entry into the gangster life — and passed like a case of head lice to the white-picket sanctuary of more well-to-do families in Fabio and Damiano D’Innocenzo’s sun-crisped sophomore feature.
Middle school has just ended for well-dressed Dennis and relatively grimy Geremia . Whoever’s narrating says he’d already done the summer reading, but withholds the fact that there’s another extracurricular assignment that’ll keep the kids busy till school starts again — one we won’t discover until the cops do quite late in the film. In the meantime, the kids come off as silent and far more naive than they actually are, studying the adults for clues on what it means to be a man.
Such vignettes are upsetting to watch, though the D’Innocenzo Brothers render them with a freshness that we feel compelled to watch … until their pattern of reductive negativity grows wearying. As “Bad Tales” unfolds, it becomes clear that they are serving up pessimistic impressions of childhood with little sense of continuity.
