Nine (2009)
Kate Hudson, Judi Dench, Federico Fellini, Rob Marshall, Nicole Kidman, Sophia Loren, Marion Cotillard, Daniel Day-Lewis, Pen?lope Cruz, and Stacy Ferguson are the cast in this Italian flare film. Daniel Day-Lewis plays the character Guido Contini who is a world famous film director and who has to find balance in his personal life. He has to contend with his profession that appears to be destroying his personal life, his personal life and the women in his life. All of which in the movie are always in conflict with each other. He appears to be going through a type of mid life crisis where he just cannot decide what is more important or what he really wants in life.
His wife is the person he continues to turn to for inspiration but she acts like she knows that anything she tells him will just be useless. Probably because she understands what he is doing and until he gets his head on straight any ones advice will be useless. The whore of his youth is also in the film and his life takes a crazy turn when she shows up and will not leave. She continuously tries to seduce him. When he comes to his mind half way with her one night he tells her it isn’t fair to her husband or his wife. And leaves her where she lies. His current film is causing even more problems when he cannot seem to get a handle on things with it. Even the films star seems to be causing him problems and he is nearly at a breakdown when he finds the middles ground.
This film was filled with heated romance, anger, confusion and immoral plots but the film itself has a nostalgic feel. This film is also based off the original Broadway play from 1982.
