An unfocused, shallow and uninteresting film, lacking purpose and point
The characters are cliches: the movie star, the philanderer writer, the egotistical actor etc, with no opportunity to see past these stereotypes.
The movie loses focus when it doesn't have a character; the comedy, drama, profound scenes don't go anywhere, they all stay superficial due to poor dialogues and depthless directing.
There are amazing actors who have shown their talent through the years, unfortunately these same actors are to curated; aesthetic is chosen over acting.
The mature cast has no relevant interaction with the middle aged nor younger cast. So there are not many laughs, tears, surprise, suspense through the whole emotionless film. There is not much sympathy for the characters who don't generate connection between themselves and less so with the audience.
There is not much of a climax or a build up, just people doing their lines, with no apparent reason to be, to do; there is no evolution, redemption, in any one of these characters .
Good music, beautiful house and scenery; but any incredible waste of these for such a bland movie, a huge squandering of talented actors because they were kept "pretty" rather than capitalizing on their proven talent.
