If you loved Saturn in Opposition, try His Secret Life
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ferzan Özpetek, and they both carry the cozy, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Saturn in Opposition, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What His Secret Life is
A quiet grieving widow stumbles into the back rooms of her marriage only to find the produce aisle fully stocked with feelings. The widowed Antonia discovers Massimo’s double life in a grocery warehouse romance that smells faintly of bad decisions and good peaches. Funny how love turns into a loyalty punchline when the produce wholesaler shows up holding a membership card.
