The Woman Of My Dreams

LA DONNA DELLA MIA VITA

Here's a romantic comedy co-written by Cristina Comencini that's sure to appeal to both men and women, all about the little lies people tell to get what they want!

Longtime Italian cinema star Stefania Sandrelli (The First Beautiful Thing) is Alba, the mother of two very different adult sons. While Giorgio (Alessandro Gassman) is a playboy who constantly cheats on his wife, Leonardo (Luca Argentero, Eat Pray Love) is always unlucky in love. When Leonardo finally meets the woman of his dreams, Sara (Valentina Lodovini), he brings her home to meet the family… but it appears this is not the first time that Sara has met Giorgio...

It may seem like the setting for an outright farce, but this 'amorality tale' is far wittier than that. Without judging the bed-hopping characters, the film delivers plenty of laughs as well as posing some interesting questions about the self-deception behind our relationships. The cast is hilarious (especially the bumbling Gassman) and director Luca Lucini proves again he is a master at satirising the middle class.
