The Great Beauty

Operatic in dimensions with definite references to Federico Fellini’s ?La Dolce Vita?, Paolo Sorrentino’s new film soars across the big screen as an authentic audiovisual delirium, a whirlwind of people, places and events in a vivid kaleidoscope of human behavior.

“Il Divo’s” brilliant leading man and virtuoso director invite you to a roller coaster ride through the countless pleasures, the wild parties and the all-night drinking benders of Rome, with a cosmopolitan writer who got tired of drowning his existential sorrows in expensive cocktails and is slowly coming to terms with the futility of it all, as your own personal tour guide.

    All is Lost
