The Great Beauty

The Great Beauty (La grande bellezza) (2013) Journalist Jep Gambardella has charmed and seduced his way through the lavish nightlife of Rome for decades. Since the legendary success of his one and only novel, he has been a permanent fixture in the city's literary and social circles, but when his 65th birthday coincides with a shock from the past, Jep finds himself unexpectedly taking stock of his life, turning his cutting wit on himself and his contemporaries, and looking past the extravagant nightclubs, parties, and cafA©s to find Rome in all its glory: a timeless landscape of absurd, exquisite beauty. ??Jon MulvaneyAwards: 60 wins & 77 nominations totalBudget: â?¬9,200,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $24,665,023Soundtrack: I Lie (Composed by David Lang)Paolo SorrentinoToni Servillo, Carlo Verdone, Sabrina Ferilli2014-03-14 (Italy, France)tt2358891
