    Storyline

    • Trivia
      About her nude scene, Francesca Cavallin said, "We were already in Turin, and Roberto [De Feo] says to me, 'Before we start shooting I have a request to make of you, something personal. I have already talked about it with the production and the premise is that the final decision is yours. I've been thinking a lot about the scene where you cut yourself (I was originally supposed to be sitting on the edge of the bathtub, dressed, and he would start from the trickle of blood and go back up to me), and I'm asking you to do it nude. It's a nude that makes sense though, for the scene, for the character and her private moment. For me it would be much stronger, however, I defer to you, because it was not in the script.' I answer him, 'Roberto, for me nudity -if it makes sense- doesn't involve any problem. My body is my instrument, I am an actress.' Then we start talking about the scene, which was originally supposed to have me sitting, or semi-sitting, while cutting myself. Then I reflect on it and say, 'I have a proposal: what if I were in the fetal position? For a character like Elena, the most private moment, of returning to the essence, must correspond to a return to the uterine environment, to a condition of absolute protection from the outside world. In my opinion, for Elena there is no greater intimacy. And you should frame her from above, naked, inside that tub' The result was stylistically and visually perfect. It is a nude, but one of extraordinary elegance. And I was blown away when I saw the camera movement he did, 180 degrees. After he finished, he made a point of showing me the shot."

    I get the point but
    I love that bourgeois decadent aesthetic as much as everyone else but this movie is too damn slow.

    Literally nothing happens for 2/3 of the movie and the final twist doesn't really make up for it. The idea should have been explored a lot more
