Tellement beau

This was one of the most ridiculous premises that I have come across in awhile. I kind of missed all of the illness based romances that were so popular for a time, with the exception of Fault in Our Stars (which was decent).

This is the story of Marta, an orphaned ugly duckling who never became a swam and is most likely going to die young because she has Cystic Fibrosis (which I knew as a medical professional even though they never specifically called it that in the film). Marta is very goal driven and is always making to do lists for her and her two best friends (Frederica and Jacopo) who live with her in the city home she inherited from her deceased parents.

Marta, Frederica and Jacopo are very colorful and quirky characters, but they are very close friends who all accompany Marta to her many doctor appointments and treatments. Marta decides she wants to date a hot guy and she sets her target on Arturo. She then proceeds to stalk him both in person and via cyber channels.

When Marta is caught by Arturo he asks what she wants to leave him alone...she says one dinner and he agrees. Only it ends up being dinner with his rich parents during which Marta is brutally honest and ends up walking out. Feeling bad, Arturo asks her out on a real date during which he plays the question game with Marta...five questions nothing but the truth.

By the end of the date, Arturo is charmed and the two start dating in earnest...only Marta doesn't tell Arturo about her illness which puts her at risk.

Completely unbelievable but surprisingly colorful and charming. I ended up liking this film in spite of my preconceived prejudices.

Loved hearing the Italian, which I think is the most beautiful language in the world and I have appreciated quirky characters since Amelie...so this is a soft recommendation from me, but definitely for a certain audience.

I didn't know at the time I watched this film that it was part of a trilogy, but this is the first of three films with Marta and her two best friends.

And so I gave it a shot! Lol and I loved it, every second of it, I enjoyed it from start to finish! The thing did not let me go nor would I had made any alterations! I thought it to be a seminal work of art tour de force! I loved it I watched it with the English British subs and it was nice , real nice! The main girl character was something I have never seen before , she was just out of this world! I am going to see something else from one of the writers cause I think their was a lot magic underneath the incredible talented thespians and pretty pictures. This was simply thoughtful and kind, adorable and sweet , a real gem, I highly recommend it! Netflix really just pops up so many different things after a viewing , it makes no sense how they pick and choose , its so random and arbitrary but sometimes I just have to marvel at how wonderful it is to be a part of these times! Super super sweet thank-you! (I wanted to add that sometimes , sometimes I guess one thing I learnt from this flix, is that sometimes if you're lucky stalking really does work, esp if you are a super cute cheeky lil' Italian girl with a lot of Moxie! Super cute!)

This movie obviously is quite good after i finished it. The plot is simple and fast, and cute with its humor elements . The main character brings the emotion out successfully to the audiences. Basically, this is a good movie. However, some scenes of the movie is quite vague for me. It didn't gave enough explanations for audience to understand. Although this is quite pity for me, it still a movie that makes people happy and relax.

It's not a bad movie, but it's pretty generic and forgettable; the plot is passable and the actors are not charismatic; Italians are capable of making better films.

Ludovica Is so beautiful and charming, much more of a true beauty than fake Hollywood actresses like Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston. Gaja is like a much more beautiful, non-anorexic Ariana Grande. If you enjoyed "She's Out Of My League", you might very much enjoy this movie as well.
