Movie Reviews of Stealing Beauty
Movie Review: Good film.
Summary: 5 Stars
Bernardo Bertolucci has given us another beautiful film. This one is set in the Italian countryside where a girl, coming of age, takes us through her confusions of love, sex, and people overall.
With an amazing cast that is anchored by the always great Jeremy Irons, Stealing Beauty is a great emotional tale. Liv Tyler is beautiful beyond belief in this film and the story keeps you interested with wonderful characters.
And for the guys, come on, it is worth it for getting to see Liv Tyler topless if nothing else, so I think it is a good movie for couples because the women will love it, and the men (At least one part of it...haha!)
I do recommend this movie and any film by Bernardo Bertolucci.
Summary of Stealing Beauty
Critics were decidedly mixed about this 1996 drama from Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci, and the movie enjoyed only a brief theatrical release. Now it's best known for its early appearance by Liv Tyler as a 19-year-old beauty named Lucy who summers at a villa in Tuscany with a variety of artistic types who immediately respond to her inspirational innocence. An amateur poet who has decided it's time to lose her virginity, Lucy has come to Italy after the death of her mother, who visited this artist's refuge 20 years earlier. Several young Italian men find Lucy quite heavenly (she is, after all, Liv Tyler), and she's not immune to their attentions, but she'd rather spend time with a playwright (Jeremy Irons) who is dying of AIDS and therefore has something other than sex on his mind. The movie's plot is about as substantial as Tyler's character (she's sexy, all right, but hardly an intellectual muse), but Stealing Beauty creates a serene mood that's so soothing you'll want to book a flight to Tuscany immediately, just to soak up the setting's idyllic atmosphere. If you're in the right frame of mind, this movie is like a balm for the soul, and Tyler and Bertolucci can share the credit for making this two-hour vacation so charmingly relaxing. --Jeff ShannonA young woman decides to lose her virginity on a trip to Italy visiting her late mother's Bohemian friends, and tries to discover the identity of her father.
