A magic trip

A piece of art. A dream becomes true. A magic door opens and you ve been transferred in a glamorous world. Lily's and Rebecca's acting with their eyes is superb and fascinating. They makes you breath more slowly. William is the driver to this magic trip.Amazing film with fantastic performances.Just a masterpiece.

Really enjoyable film about the Italian film industry in the 1950s

Lily James has an old-fashioned movie-star turn in the Italian film _Finally Dawn_ directed by Saverio Costanzo. She plays a 1950s Hollywood diva shooting a film in Rome about a Cleopatra knock-off, with huge movie sets, over-wrought make-up, and intentionally bad English dialogue (to be dubbed into Italian later so no one probably cares). Her character Josephine is almost as cruel and capricious as the fictional Egyptian Queen, bestowing favors on Mimosa (Rebecca Antonaci) on her first day as a movie extra only to make her night a living hell afterwards.It is by far the best role I've seen Lily James in. She is not the technically perfect actors' actor like Jodie Comer is._Finally Dawn_ perhaps lets her channel her own inner diva/messy-personal-life persona?Unfortunately, her presence is so powerful it leaves a visible vacuum when she is off-screen, which is more than half the time.The protagonist is really Mimosa. The young Antonaci channels a bit of Lea Seydoux in _Farewell My Queen_, playing off James' flamboyance, mostly doing reaction shots, being silent, acting with her expressive eyes. The character lacks Seydoux's petulance and flashes of anger that would make her more three-dimensional, but the actress is one to watch for the future. Willem Dafoe has an interesting role as Josephine's enabler, while Alba Rohrwacher plays the Italian movie idol that Mimosa improbably meets at a decadent party reminiscent of the far inferior _Babylon_ by Damien Chazelle.The magic realism ending is a bit too obvious, and the well-structured screenplay could have used more depth. Still, the empty streets of Rome shimmer, the surface beauty of this Venice Film Festival entry is undeniable, and it has been a while since I have seen such an enjoyable Italian film.
