Marilyn tiene los ojos negros

Good or very good acting performances by the 3 leads. Unfortunately the storyline is unoriginal and the plot unplausible.

Slow, unfunny and only slightly poignant towards the end, isn't able to capitalize on the setting, preferring to stay politically correct and superficial.

Pity.

Excellent idea, great actors (Accordi and Leoni are just marvelous) and fine direction...very under rated, this movie deserve at least 7-7,5 Recommended.

It's a movie that I think should be watched. Simplicity of life is prioritized in the film. In a life where we cannot choose what we will live, it is necessary to be prepared for many things, and the most important thing is to try to be happy by accepting it. That's the mark the movie left on me.

"Marylin's Eyes" ("Marilyn ha gli occhi neri") is this year's biggest surprise on Netflix so far. The RomCom made me laugh, love and cry with it's adorable story dealing with psychiatric disorders, a wonderful cast and its very humanist approach. Of course the Italian flavor makes it perfect for me. Good food, precision, passion and heavy gesticulations are ever present.

Miriam Leone is such a charme as the notorious liar "Clara". The way she acts and uses her facial expressions is extremly appealing. Funnily she played in 2019's short "A Cup of Coffee with Marilyn" and here we see her again for a Marylin scene. But I am not going to tell more at this point.

Stefano Accorsi is her perfect love interest as the feisty "Diego". He managed to weave tics in his performance, which is a thing of his role. The rest of the cast is also acting it out. Really this film is a humble nod to humanity and the flaws we are dealing with. It makes you love the world a bit more. I never experienced this strong emotions with American actors in the past few years, so please give this Italian production a try.

There's a hidden world out there. A world of forgotten people. Marginalized. People that can give much more if we could see through for once. Superb acting by the main characters. Stefano Accorsi and Myriam Leone are some of the best Italian contemporary actors and Netflix choice to produce the movie is a winning decision.
