I’m not sure what this is about (Italy? Fame? The sweet life?) but this is a gorgeous film with beautiful people and cinematography.
Iconoclastic but admittedly worth watching. Very good acting.
A magnificent kaleidoscope of mood and tone, beauty and melancholy, muggy nights and morning realization.
Everything you say about this movie is too bland
Not easy to watch but worth it if you are a true cinephile.
A timeless classic. Fillini makes fun of fame, wealth, the media and the not-so-sweet life with extreme style and masterclass filmmaking.
Beautiful melancholic take on the socialite lifestyle of a photographer. The word paparazzi originated here, as it is one character’s name
A masterpiece about moral decay,obsession with celebrity, contemporary malaise and constantly searching for satisfaction in a world without
One of the most beautiful films ever. The pacing could be better, really drags sometimes and can feel plotless, but still is amazing.
It is a timeless sensational brilliant film. One of the best movies ever made.
