Before Opening Night (5.6)

Film · 2011 · 1 h 20 min · Drammatico, Commedia

This Argentinian dramedy gives us elements of Woody Allen’s nervous comedy and Cassavetes’ melodramatic roller coaster in a storm of egos that takes place on one decisive weekend in the lives of Juana, a popular actress about to star in an important theater production, and her husband Roman, a director suffering from writer’s block. The couple’s daughter, Lila, serves as a mirror reflecting her parents’ frustrations and joys. The long takes, atmospheric music, and stellar performances, give a poignant, sometimes hilarious portrayal of a family as they attempt to negotiate their egos with their marriage and artistic lives.

Regia: Santiago Giralt

Con Érica Rivas, Nahuel Mutti, Miranda de la Serna, Rodrigo de la Serna, María Marull, Emmanuel Miño, Mónica Villa
