When I arrived in Rome the first time, the first thing I did was listening to "Bello E Impossibile" by Gianna Nannini (a song that was mentioned but not featured in the movie, as it was released later). So once I saw that a biopic about this Italian Rock legend is released I was very curious about it. And it was a very interesting movie. Letizia Toni did a great job playing Gianna Nannini and everything is very authentic. However in some moments the movie seems to be rushed. Most of the time we see the development of Gianna Nannini from a bar musician to a superstar, including her hallucinations, with very short flashbacks to her childhood. Unfortunately all is done in a puzzle style so we not often see any background or any deep meanings to the story. Many interesting elements, like her relationship with her friends, her family, her business connections etc. Were done very quickly and abrupt. How did it happen that Gianna became such a rebel as shown in the movie? Why was there so much hate between her and her father? It seems like an element from many different artist biopics that the father doesn't understand what his child feels and what he or she dreams about. All flashbacks, either of her singing lessons, her work in her father's bakery or her recording sessions or writing moments are short and not very deep, which is sad. It could have given us a more inside view into Gianna Nannini's life.

Nevertheless it is an interesting movie which is definitely worth watching, especially due to the great soundtrack and Letizia Toni in action.

Finalmente che il mondo conoscerai la bellissima musica di un mito! I am so happy that the world outside of Italy/mainland Europe will know the fantastic music and,unmistakable and,wonderful voice of Gianna Nannini! Having lived in Italia for 20 years I was blessed with hearing her voice BUT on moving to the U. K. sadly NOBODY had ever heard of her and,still to this day it sadly remains the same! I have to keep up with the Italian music scene to still hear her wonderful opere d'arte and,hopefully with this docu series the wonderful Gianna will be heard and,appreciated. Especially in the U. K.!!!

So I stumbled upon this movie through an Autostraddle article and decided to give it a go despite the mixed reviews. I ended up loving it a lot, it's like The Runaways with a dash of A Beautiful Mind. Letizia Toni did a fantastic job.

I just don't agree with the bad ratings/reviews! I was glued to the screen the entire time and captivated by the story and the acting. There might have been 1 or 2 scenes that weren't up to mark but those were really minor things that didn't dampen my experience of the movie in any way.

I also liked that the movie wasn't just a glossy, perfect portrayal of Gianna Nannini and the people in her life. It was very much real and there was nuance to the characters.
