From Michael San Filippo, your Guide to Italian
Caro Lettore,

Welcome to this weekend's edition of your About.com Italian Language Newsletter! The Washington, DC, Italian Language meetup group hosts monthly screenings and discussion of Italian films. The initiative aims to share Italian culture through award-winning films made by the modern masters of Italian film.

In the About.com Italian Language forums community members discuss the difference between stanza and camera, and a question about how to use the terms buonanotte and buona notte. Plus the fourth canto of Paradiso in Dante's The Divine Comedy in both Italian and English, in which Beatrice discourses on the freedom of the will and the sacredness of vows. Lastly, there are Italian abbreviations and acronyms beginning with the letter U.
