i be not really sure what to make of this movie and especially after see a great film like la notte . unfortunately i saw this in german during an antonioni film festival at the frankfurt film museum and so i do not get to hear malkovich great voice . he be suppose to tie together four story about couple in italy . however and as good an actor a he be and malkovich can not rescue the most ridiculous of the four story portray here represent a woman who come up to him at a waterside cafe near a shop she own and blurt out about how she kill her father nearby . then the two of them go home and have sex and and he leave . it seem a if antonioni lose the subtlety have in earlier film ( like the passenger ) when deal with sex and replace it with blatant nudity . however nonsensical the storyline be and the film feature two thing that make it watchable represent eye and ear candy . the actor and actress be all beautiful people and and the cinematography be marvelous scene in old italian city contrast with a bit in a tall apartment build overlook a city ( reminiscent of la notte ) . the ear candy and however and be what really make the film worth watch . u2 and brian eno collaborate on your blue room and beach sequence and both of which set the mood perfectly in the film . the song be available on passenger represent original soundtrack 1 .
