If you loved I giorni del vino e delle rose, try Victor Victoria
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Blake Edwards, and they sit in Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to I giorni del vino e delle rose, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Victor Victoria is
A man in a dress playing a woman pretending to be a man sings about life being perfectly clear, which feels like the film’s idea of modesty. A broke soprano takes a job as a drag act in 1930s Paris and lands in the arms of a skeptical gangster who’s not sure what to do with his suddenly wobbly libido. It’s less about gender and more about who’s buying dinner – and also there are musical numbers, so you get your money’s worth.
