Same movie, 3 different ratings from people I follow on Letterboxd. Two of them are “real life” friends (whatever that means).
I asked the first friend “guess which one is you?”. He knew immediately, and when I told him the movie he said he still stands by that 1/2 star rating.
Now I want to see this movie even more!
This romantic drama by Michelangelo Antonioni follows the love life of Vittoria, a beautiful literary translator living in Rome. After splitting from her writer boyfriend, Riccardo, Vittoria meets Piero, a lively stockbroker, on the hectic floor of the Roman stock exchange. Though Vittoria and Piero begin a relationship, it is not one without difficulties, and their commitment to one another is tested during an eclipse.
@ishmaellasting Oh well, yeah, the second line was you :)
Also, he’s a really nice guy, sometimes with strong opinions on movies.
@onuryasar I like people with strong opinions on films. And I like films that provoke strong opinions. It's all good. I'd tell your friend these things reassuringly, as I drove him to the beach to throw him in the sea. ;)
(Although L'Avventura is better)
