andrea c @Charst 01/15/2022 La verità è che un finale così forte, anche coraggioso a suo modo, permette al film di restare impresso a prescindere dal tasso di gradimento avuto fino a quel momento. Per il resto, i personaggi sono tutti pesanti, le loro scelte sono incomprensibili per tutta la durata del film e a tratti anche il ritmo è veramente troppo lento e senza la dovuta carica emotiva delle immagini e degli sguardi. Alcuni personaggi poi sono totalmente e colpevolmente lasciati in disparte e non sfruttati a dovere. See more 02/11/2014 Love at its most hectic, ugly, mad, passionate, violent, and warped. See more 03/31/2013 This film has no mercy for its characters and its audience. Some loose strings in the plot too. Very feeble attempts to poetry are drowned in the overwhelming sorrow. A disappointment, probably because of the high expectations on the director. See more 10/31/2012 film abbastanza pesante... specialmente la fine... See more 08/21/2011 Scelto dalla locandina, mi son trovato davanti ad un film crudo e stressante. Se lo sapevo guardavo ben altro! See more 07/19/2011 Emma is having a Perfect Day: worked all night at a phone center, in the morning got fired, terrorized by her separated husband in the afternoon and had no idea where her lovely kids were by the nightfall. Mr. Ozpetek knows how to write a good story and it is a first class, gifted and sensible director. The women in this and all his films are gorgeous and amazingly talented. Isabella Ferrari (Emma) and Monica Guerritore (Mara) are just two of an exceptional ensemble of fine actors in this powerful film; there is a silent attraction and a massive need for each other, especially this night. The phone rings and the credits are rolling before we ever find out the mothers reaction to the tragic news. All I can imagine that she will never be the same, ever again. See more Read all reviews
