it's good to be the king

saw this movie the other day at CC village east... loved it! full of unbelievably beautiful clothes, the film is a fascinating portrait of valentino and his partner giancarlo giametti. considering the economic climate, i can see how critics would find this movie narcissistic and escapist. i didn't feel that way, but you'll have to decide for yourself. if anything, go for milton, monty, maude, maggie, margot, and molly - valentino's adorable sextet of pugs!

if you are in the city, the film is moving to the angelika film center this weekend, and there will be a talkback friday evening, may 29th, at the 7:15pm showing with director matt tyrnauer.
