[@lorenzopetrucci1787]

I'm italian, and maybe not everyone know that this movie here is very underrated and almost nobody likes it. When I read american reviews I was really surprised by how much the great beauty is loved all over the world, except for italy... Thank you for doing this, very appreciated. I'd also love to see the beauty of Sorrentino's "loro"

[@fabri_gonzalez]

why nobody likes there?

[@lorenzopetrucci1787]

@@fabri_gonzalez because it is considered like a bad copy of fellini's work (especially of la dolce vita), but they didn't understand that sorrentino only wanted to homage him and make his own movie.

[@alessandrodiviccaro2809]

Non capisco nemmeno io perché proprio nel nostro paese(di merda) non venga apprezzata un'opera di questo calibro.

[@lorenzopetrucci1787]

@@fabri_gonzalez but despite my love for this movie, I still think that the best sorrentino movie is "il divo"

[@gb2096]

Il Divo is indeed the best, but LGB is without a doubt Sorrentino’s best on a visual level

[@BaintonTV]

A simply remarkable film, a film that has haunted me since the first viewing. So many layers, such depth of existential questioning and, of course, the sheer beauty of Rome combined perfectly with a unique main character, Jep, who becomes like a camera seeking out the meaning of this life, who finds in splashes of beauty the muse he needs to write another book, after so many years of searching...a wondrous character who is not afraid to question his own assumptions and worth, while downplaying his past literary achievement, and speaking the truth about himself and others. After a film like this, our American 'comic book' movies seem pretty sad.

[@giuseppelafratta8216]

Paolo Sorrentino is the greatest Italian director of the last two decades. This movie is Sorrentino’s masterpiece and you should watch also the tv series he made( The Young Pope and The New Pope). His movies are the reason why we(Italians) are proud of our Cinematography.

[@rbasket8]

Stefano Sollima is great too

[@MrAllright2]

one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen

[@laylover7621]

Should've called it "The Great Beauty of The Great Beauty"

[@davidhaveahead]

This film can be called the new "Dolce Vita" Fellini of our time, an incredibly beautiful and deep film!

[@ssmm-pq6rn]

Non confondiamo la merda con la cioccolata per cortesia

[@mubiusford8693]

To me, both have a very similar surface (albeit La Grande Belleza is an updated take on this) but have entirely different themes and content.

[@claudiomonti3132]

fellini’s films>>>>>>>>>>sorrentino’s films

[@olmomecene]

I'd actually say that this movie is a mix of la Dolce Vita and 8 1/2... the only similarity shared with la Dolce Vite is the social context and the implicit critique of said society. On the contrary, 8 1/2 is about a man who produced marvelous art and is now completely stuck and without any idea of sort, which is the exact thing that happens to Jep Gambardella in this masterpiece. The key difference to me, and what elevates la Grande Bellezza (I'll say a blasphemy now) even above 8 1/2 is the sacrality used to talk about such a sacred topic: beauty. Fellini was always a bit too casual in his movies, I always felt that a slower pace would have been a benefit and, as much as I love Nino Rota's music, I prefer these wonderful and ominous chants/choruses.

[@PierAntonioBrunello]

@@claudiomonti3132 why we have to do comparison, they are totally different filmmakers

[@rawnin8821]

Simply perfection of each constituent that adds up to be called a movie. The near tangible sad evanescence of everything from the beauty of Rome or whatever that is called life. Respect to all who participated in the creation of this great beauty!

[@raulibaxca1582]

One of the best movies of this century

[@andreasecchia96]

The Great Beauty is a work of art and Sorrentino is by far the most talented Italian director

[@scream1611]

One of the most striking part of the movie is 1:17. Jep says "Do you know who am I?" and the little girl replies back " No one ! " Jep mumbles a bit then accept the fact that she is right. He is no one like the rest of us...

[@iuriconceicao9212]

As the child represents innocence and truth. The girl can see Jep’s true self, what he is trying to hide through his festive appearance.

[@scream1611]

This is exactly what i mean. You can't fool the truth. This is the reason why he stopped the convince her and accept that she is right.

[@akshitgautam3081]

What is it that you love the most ? The smell of old peoples houses.

[@NanellosGlitches]

L’odore delle case dei vecchi

[@a2zadi]

What is the deeper meaning behind this? I still contemplate on it

[@akshitgautam3081]

@@a2zadi I don't know how to explain it so you can understand it but all I can say is that there are some people that enjoy nostalgia more than the present generation in which they are born.This film focuses on those people who see deeper meaning in everything.This is not about that average 9 to 5 job kinda life , its about the things that we didn't do but are still nostalgic about them.Its complicated but it is what it is and one day you will surely connect with this film.

[@morellaalmann8694]

a2zadi I agree with Akshit Gautam’s answer. I think there’s something to be said for those who live in nostalgia. When things aren’t real and in the present, we can imagine them as being perfect in a way nothing that is real could ever be. That’s to say that Jep is such a person- one for whom reality isn’t good enough, and only nostalgia isn’t a disappointment.

[@DarkAngelEU]

@@akshitgautam3081 He says this in a manner that gives away he is nostalgic, but when we learn later what he is nostalgic about, it turns out he is nostalgic about pussy as well. One pussy, to be exact.

[@FilmSureelist97]

One of my favorite movies ever. I was obsessed with this movie after I saw the trailer from the Oscar’s.

[@mastixmastix]

I would say one of the best movies I have seen in the latest years. Beautiful photography with a deep and enriching script. The superb acting of Toni Servillo and the rest of characters plus the masterful directing of Sorrentino are a delight for the senses. The Great Beauty is well beyond the masterpiece of Fellini.

@@Mukesh-ot5kp that is the great beauty that inspired him to write the first book. After that he never wrote again. He even mentions during the movie “I was looking for the great beauty”. After 40 years he comes back to the same spot, and the scene shows him both old and young with the same stare while he recites the beginning of his new book. Symbolising that he indeed came back, once again, to the great beauty.

Great a Paolo Sorrentino film.....huge respect for his works ,you should consider doing the new pope and if you haven't seen it I highly recommend,,it's a sequel series to the young pope which is also great but if you do decide to make a beauty of it should be for the new pope

[@boolzorman]

Superbe.

[@nicolaspoblete640]

Great video man! Also love the music you chose, really captures the feeling of the film. I would love to see Io Sono L’amore (I Am Love) by Luca Guadagnino which is one of the most underrated films of the last decade. Same with El Abrazio del Serpiente (The Embrace of the Serpent) by Ciro Guerra. Both are some of the most beautiful films ive ever seen
