A good friend who knows my love of films by Federico Fellini just sent me this trailer for the upcoming move called Nine directed by Rob Marshall (director of Chicago). What comes after Fellini’s 8 1/2? Nine! With a stellar cast, including Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, and the eternally beautiful Sophia Loren, this is certain to be an extravagantly good time. Here is the movie description:
“NINE” is a vibrant and provocative musical that follows the life of world famous film director Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis) as he reaches a creative and personal crisis of epic proportion, while balancing the numerous women in his life including his wife (Marion Cotillard), his mistress (Penelope Cruz), his film star muse (Nicole Kidman), his confidant and costume designer (Judi Dench), an American fashion journalist (Kate Hudson), the whore from his youth (Fergie) and his mother (Sophia Loren). The film is directed by Rob Marshall (CHICAGO). The original 1982 Broadway production of “NINE,” with music and lyrics by Maury Yeston, won five Tony Awards including Best Musical.
Any man would go mad trying to balance those women! By the way, did you catch that glimpse of Positano at minute 1:33? Can’t wait to see this!
oooh I can’t wait to see this.
That’s quite a round up of stars. I wonder if any was actually filmed in Positano?
Grrrr, I almost worked on that film, but didn’t make it in the end. I’m sure it was filmed in Cinecittà studios in Rome, and some second unit stuff in Positano too.
Ciao sweet friend
oh! I SO want to see this film!
Ciao Linda! I agree!! I wonder how long I will have to wait to see it here in Italy??
Ciao Scintilla! Yes, it is quite a cast! I have never been a particular fan of Daniel Day-Lewis, but mostly because of the types of movies he generally makes. I am curious to see if there is more of Positano, too!
Ciao Lola! Wow, that would have been an adventure. You have such a fascinating and exciting job! Alway lovely to hear from you here! Ciao bella!
Ciao Annika! Me too! Do you have to wait forever and a day to see American films in Sweden, or do they arrive sooner there than in Italy?
