Gabriel's Rapture: Part One

A second part that makes you want more and ask not to finish. The energy of the actors show us a chemistry that makes you doubt if it's acting

I watched it on its own on the 24th, and yesterday, I watched all, GI movies and GR togethet. The locations, the music, the story is as always faithful to the book. The acting was excellent, Giulio and Melanie really pull it off, and the rest of the cast, were great. Natalie was a real piece of work.. I don't think any of it could of been better.

Why? Because at its core it's a film about a long courtship and a romance that is passionate but chaste, intense but forbidden. There are no hidden agendas and kinks here, isn't obsessed with being crammed with explicit sex scenes, but just good old fashioned emotional erotica. For those who still have even the slightest romantic side left, this might just make you melt in your chair while laughing at how silly you are for doing it. Bravo! Bring on the next one.

A beautifully shot first film in the Gabriels Rapture story. The chemistry between Giulio Berruti and Melanie Zanetti is wonderful. All in all a pleasure to watch. Definitely does justice to the novel.

Just like Inferno, everything was beautifully done. Acting, directing, cinematography, story. Only minor things are left out for timing. There are 4 books total in the series, I've read each one 9 times and have been a fan since 2015. Giulio and Melanie have off the charts chemistry you've never seen on screen before. (This is often why some people in the fandom wonder why they are not a real life couple) My only complaint was that Part 1 stopped at the end of Chapter 11. There are 2 more films and 59 total chapters in the book, the next 2 parts will have to be longer as there is so much more to cover. Any book fan knows we haven't even scratched the surface of the roller coaster of this book. I look forward always to parts 2 and 3.
