La bellezza del somaro | Sergio Castellitto, 2010
Italy | Italian | 96 minutes
Actor Marco Giallini in person on June 2!
Successful architect Marcello (Sergio Castellitto) has just about everything one could desire: a fine career; a beautiful wife, Marina (Laura Morante), who herself is a successful professional; good friends and a marvelous home in the country. Then one weekend, his daughter comes home with a new boyfriend in tow... Working once again with his wife, the hugely popular novelist Margaret Mazzantini, Castellitto offers a wry updating of Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?, exploring what may be one of our last social taboos in a dissection of Italy’s liberal elite that’s as amusing as it is perceptive.
