NOTES

Title from title frames

Acclaimed Italian auteur Nanni Moretti finds comedy and pathos in the story of Margherita, a harried film director (Margherita Buy, *A Five Star Life*) trying to juggle the demands of her latest movie and a personal life in crisis. The star of her film, a charming but hammy American actor (John Turturro) imported for the production, initially presents nothing but headaches and her crew is close to mutiny. Away from the shoot, Margherita tries to hold her life together as her beloved mother’s illness progresses, and her teenage daughter grows ever more distant. Winner of the Ecumenical Jury Prize and nominated for the Palme d'Or for at **Cannes Film Festival**. "*A tremendously smart and enjoyable movie.*" - Peter Bradshaw, ***The Guardian***
