At Giunti Odeon, the new film by Paolo Sorrentino, in competition at the last Cannes Film Festival. The life of Parthenope, who is named after her city but is neither a siren nor a myth. From 1950, when she was born, until today. Inside her, the whole long repertoire of existence: carefreeness and its fainting, classical beauty and its inexorable change, useless loves and impossible ones, stale flirtations and the vertigo of lightning strikes, kisses on Capri nights, flashes of happiness and persistent pain, real fathers and invented ones, the end of things, new beginnings. The others, lived, observed, loved, men and women, their melancholic drifts, their somewhat disheartened eyes, their impatience, the loss of hope of being able to laugh once again for a distinguished man who stumbles and falls in a downtown street. Always in the company of the passing of time, this faithful boyfriend. And of Naples, which bewitches, enchants, shouts, laughs and then knows how to hurt you.
