MALENA
This
is one of the stranger movies in some time. I know
the tradition of young boys coming of age with beautiful
women is a hallowed one in Italy, but this film pushes
the envelope. A gorgeous woman spends the entire movie
walking back and forth in the town square while a
young teen-age boy gawks at her.
No
plot, no character development, no action by the hero.
The message of this movie seems to be "Aren't women
beautiful?"
