Movie Reviews of Le Amiche
Movie Review: A Cool Melodrama
Summary: 4 Stars
Extremely impressive, fully realised 50s Antonioni. Less sparse than his later work but superb script, direction and acting from ensemble cast. Seen entirely from the female perspective, adult, subtle, complex, modern. As ever with Antonioni, a wonderful use of space and location. The mid-fifties fashions are attractive adding another layer to the visual pleasures. Extremely entertaining, warm, human, approachable, not nearly as cold, "difficult" and distancing as his later work and reputation. Not unlike Ophuls in some ways. A cool melodrama. (Why only four stars? Four is good for me. Be sparing with your hyperbole or what's left for the genuine masterpieces?)
Summary of Le Amiche
Academy Award-winning director Michelangelo Antonioni (Blow Up, Beyond the Clouds) explores women's evolving role in society and the conflict between love and career in this engrossing drama. Clelia, a beautiful young woman who lands her dream job in a glamourous Italian fashion house, soon finds herself plunged into a cruel world of phony, shallow people. The only honesty in her life is the pure love offered by Carlo, a young, socially impoverished assistant architect. But is it enough? With its fascinating, multi-layered story, rich characterizations and superb performances, "Le Amiche" remains one of Antonioni's most beloved works.Art House & International DVD Video
