Plot
Summary: On the day in 1940 that Italy
enters the war, two things happen to the 12-year-old
Renato: he gets his first bike, and he gets his first
look at Malèna, a beautiful, silent outsider
who's moved to this Sicilian town to be with her husband
Nico who promptly goes off to war, leaving her to
the lustful eyes of the men and the sharp tongues
of the women. During the next few years, as Renato
grows toward manhood, he watches Malèna suffer
and prove her mettle: her loneliness, then grief when
Nico is reported dead, the effects of slander on her
relationship with her father, her poverty and search
for work, and final humiliations. Will Renato learn
courage from Malèna and stand up for her?
Comments:
Monica
Bellucci is super sexy in a very good film. The person
who should get the most credit in this film is the
one who gave Bellucci those dresses to wear. (yum)
The story of young obsession is one that is close
to my heart. I remember being a young teenager in
love with a certain girl or woman. She is all you
think about.
Giuseppe Sulfaro does an awesome job as Malena's admirer
from a distance. Malena goes through many struggles
and depressing moments in her tortured life. Some
people don't like the ending of the movie wear Malena
is beaten by a gang for her choices. That scene is
a true to life event because it actually happened
to women at the end of WW2 who made the same choices.
How Malena is able to restore her pride and womanhood
is a wonderful moment. 8/10
