With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who likes secrets inside secrets and anyone who loves backroom deals and speeches. Nobody is quite who they seem. Power and ambition drive every scene.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1971: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
The film reveals how and why a supposedly revolutionary Italian girl has in fact fallen prey to bourgeois ideology.
