Is she a siren or a myth?

Parthenope is a woman named after her city. In Greek mythology, Parthenope was a siren who committed suicide after failing to charm Odysseus. Her body was carried by a flood to where the Castel dell’Ovo is now built, and she later gave her name to the city that became Naples, Naples. In the film, Parthenope is the epitome of the city of Naples.

The beauty of life in its insignificance

HeatWritten by Peter Gregson, Performed by Peter Gregson, Warren Zielinski, Magdalena Filipczak, Laurie Anderson, Ashok Klouda. After being a bit disappointed with his last film, È STATA LA MANO DI DIO, PARTHENOPE, I was reminded of what moved me so much in Sorrentino’s films. Everything about the city of Naples and its pure waters is beautiful, from the still unknown goddess Celeste da Porta. Add Fellini-like cinematography and Lele Marchitelli’s wonderful jazz soundtrack and you have perfection.

The world as it is

You would think he was making another GRANDE BELLEZZA, but it’s not. Once again, Sorrentino manages to surprise us with a new way of dealing with the same thing in the end. The film asks questions without answering them, as if to tell us to stop looking for answers and start looking at the beauty. As a result, the audience leaves the theater not with answers, but with an interesting look at life and ultimately death…

Oh, I almost forgot, Gary Oldman, who stars in the film

Despite his limited screen time, he manages to deliver an amazing performance. Then he walks away, as if asking us to enjoy the film that convinced him. So I know not everyone will like it – some scenes are very strange, I must admit. But in my opinion, this film gave me everything I did (and didn’t expect) from walking into the theater.

I honestly hope/think he gets the Palme d’OrGrazie Paolo 😉
