I have to proudly admit that my new (school)year resolution to go to the cinema every week is working! Since I don't have so many friends in Rome to hang out in the evening, this is my little escape from home from time to time (and also my way to get to know the city by night and the bus routes). And so, I saw: Royal Affair, Bling Ring, Gloria, Adore, The Late Quartet, Gravity, Blue Jasmine - almost all of them very interesting. If only I didn't need to listen to George Clooney speaking Italian! (I will never understand Italian passion for dubbing). Next weeks look promising too: the latest Polanski's movie, La vie d'Adèle (Golden Palm'13) and one I can't wait to see: The Past of brilliant Farhadi.
My yesterday escape:
A couple of childhood friends fall in love with each other's sons, based on Doris Lessing's novel. Briefly: it could be more interesting. It's beautifully shot and actresses (Watts and Wright) are good, but unfortunately the script sometimes turns the movie into a melodrama and dialogues bring on laugh when it was not the intention.
