Synopsis
Like Crazy (La pazza gioia, 2016) is an Italian-French comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Paolo Virzì and starring Valeria Bruni Tedeschi and Micaela Ramazzotti. Runtime: 118 minutes.
Beatrice is loud, self-important and convinced her connections make her untouchable. Donatella is quiet, withdrawn, carrying something she won't name. They meet in a Tuscan psychiatric facility and, against every rule, slip out together. What follows is not quite a road movie and not quite a farce — it moves between the two freely, and the shifts hurt in the best way. Bruni Tedeschi in particular plays Beatrice with a manic energy that keeps you unsure whether to laugh or feel terrible about laughing.
Italy submitted the film for the 2017 Academy Awards international feature shortlist, and Virzì took home the David di Donatello award for Best Director. Stream Like Crazy online on iFILM.
