Aristotelis the Lightweight (1970)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

A pasta-factory owner, Aristotelis Kolokythas, after two unsuccessful marriages in the past, is now crazy about a folk singer, Mirella. For her sake, he lavishly squanders his pasta profits, despite the earnest efforts of his partner Orestis, to rein in his spending and put some sense into him. When the business finally goes bankrupt, the hero considers leaving for the Congo to work with his twin brother, Vangelis. Suddenly, however, everything changes, as Vangelis arrives in Athens.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
