I AM LOVE : : : : : MONA DI ORIO VANILLE (2011)
3 Comments
I have not seen Io Sono l’Amore yet, inexplicably. I will order the DVD immediately. Visconti’s The Damned is one of MY movies.
I also have yet to get my hands on anything from the house of di Orio. I must rectify that situation immediately, as well.
One minor quibble: John Adams, who’s brilliant music was also used in Call Me By Your Name, is decidedly American, and one of my favorite composers.
I enjoyed your review of the film, and of the fragrance.
I thought that in a film set in Italy, the sensual revelation of food was less credible than it was in Babette’s Feast, for example.
That’s one film I have always meant to see. I know what you mean about the food in I Am Love, though – I think it was more sensual actually in Call Me By Your Name, though let’s not talk about the peach.
