FILM REVIEW: I Am Love
7.15.10
I AM LOVE
Written and directed by Luca Guadagnino
Starring Tilda Swinton
Reviewed by Seth Rogovoy
With its sweeping camerawork, its gorgeous Italian settings, its stunning scenes of food prep, its evocative score by contemporary minimalist John Adams, and Tilda Swinton’s radiant, alabaster face that reveals feeling through what it hides rather than what it exposes, I Am Love is an instant, European classic – a contemporary setting of a famliar story – think Jane Austen (indeed, Swinton’s character is named Emma) or D.H. Lawrence – of what happens to the stifling mores of the upper class when modernity clashes with tradition. Brilliant, sexy, and compelling, even while it’s unsettling.
