Alberto luca movie#
Earlier in the movie the friends discussed how they could take the "useless" prize money from the race and turn it into a Vespa. When they finally get the Vespa, though, Alberto realizes there's another way that it can help Luca travel beyond Portorosso. For most of Luca's story, the two boys dream of buying a Vespa because Alberto says it could take them anywhere in the world. This not only gives Alberto a father figure and someone to take care of him so that he can fully enjoy his childhood, but also gives the kind-hearted and instinctively paternal Massimo someone to care for while Giulia spends most of the year living with her mother. Fortunately Luca offers a happy ending for Alberto when Massimo, who has grown fond of him while the boys were staying in Giulia's treehouse, offers to let Alberto live with him permanently. He's afraid that Luca will leave him all alone, just like Alberto's father did, so Luca instinctively rejecting him when he transformed into his sea monster form in front of Giulia was particularly traumatic. This reveal explains why Alberto is so jealous of Luca's friendship with Giulia. It's unclear whether Alberto's dad went back to the ocean or stayed on the land, but based on the number of tally marks Alberto made before he stopped counting, he's been on his own for several years. One day he told Alberto that he was old enough to live on his own and abandoned him, but Alberto initially kept track of the days in the hope that his father would one day change his mind. It's not until the two friends have a major falling-out that Luca learns the truth: Alberto's father left him a long time ago, and isn't coming back. When Luca first meets Alberto, the older boy tells him that he lives with his father on the island, but his dad is away a lot.
Here's our breakdown of Luca's ending, the movie's overall message, and what the epilogue reveals. As Luca, Alberto and Giulia train to beat Ercole in an upcoming race, jealousy threatens to tear the underdogs apart and the weather threatens to reveal Luca and Alberto's true nature. Besides, Luca is the perfect audience for Alberto’s vast – albeit questionable – knowledge of all things human.
Expressive and gregarious, he is all about having fun, so inviting a fellow sea monster to hang out above the surface is a no brainer for Alberto. Alberto Scorfano is an independent, free-spirited teenage sea monster with unbridled enthusiasm for the human world.
