Om denne filmen

Journalist Jep Gambardella has charmed and seduced his way through the lavish nightlife of Rome for decades, but when his sixty-fifth birthday coincides with a shock from the past, Jep finds himself unexpectedly taking stock of his life, looking past the extravagant nightclubs, parties, and cafés to find Rome in all its glory: a timeless landscape of absurd, exquisite beauty.

This is an amazing character study. I have heard that Sorrentino has been compared to Fellini. Although similar, they have their own styles. I see much beauty in this movie as well as a powerful message, similar to that of Tom Fords "A Single Man" It is very well done and poignant. I agree completely with Simon Abrams review of the movie. Take a look on rotten tomatoes. The ending is brilliant.

Loved the movie. It is a well-crafted and deep study of one person Jep, artistically executed by Sorrentino. Visually rich with philosophical themes.

One of the best movies I have ever seen! Amazing music,photography, and great story line about life and it's mystery! Enjoy I
