Review of Un amore

Un amore (1999)
possibly the worst film I ever saw
15 November 2002
This film is pathetic. It's about the romantic relationship betweeen two people (a man and a woman). But you never know WHY they fall in love, since the director fails to evoke any symphaty for the two main characters in the viewer. They just meet one day, and the next day they are "in love". It's like watching two strangers making out on the bus for two hours. Gross. The acting is dreadful. Many moments made me cringe and want to leave the theatre, like the scene where the two characters meet in a disco. The references to italian cultural history couldn't be more stereotypical (from the perspective of the intellectual left). I'm still waiting the time when italian cinema will abandon these intellectualistic, fake, boring themes and make a honest film with substance.
