Synopsis

You have probably seen him in the tabloids: Johnny Marco drives around in a Ferrari and has a constant stream of girls and pills when he feels like having a night in. Comfortably numbed, Johnny drifts along. Then, his 11-year-old daughter Cleo (Elle Fanning) from his failed marriage arrives unexpectedly at the Chateau Hotel and he is forced to confront his life. –Venice Film Festival

This film deals with the same topic of a Tsai Ming-liang film, with the same effort; although the main characters belong to a different social class.

Stile di regia asciuttissimo per questo film dai forti sapori ellissiani. Macchina da presa glaciale a seguire una storia che vive di momenti che la racchiudono (su tutti la scena della maschera) e descrivono l'immobilità di un non-protagonista che è perennemente un mezzo, meno di niente. Come al solito imbarazzante (per noi) il momento ambientato in Italia. Ne usciamo sempre come poveri imbecilli, che bello.

I love Sofia Coppola but this one didn't really do it for me.
