I know! What gives?! It seems like there's Italian EVERYWHERE I LOOK, now! And they ALL speak way the hell too quickly for me to understand.
Although the father, when he was talking to his daughter in Italian, I kind of understood that he said "Why won't he do it?" ... something like "Perche lui non farlo?" or something. I was like "COOL!"
In "Munich" (very good movie), there's a chunk of Italian dialogue and because it was someone playing that Italian wasn't their first language, I totally caught everything he said. That pleased me greatly.
Meanwhile, I've been rewatching Alias episodes and good LORD, do they ever speak a lot of Italian in that show. And I can understand a lot of it!
... I should go see my prof now, she just got back from her late lunch.
