Surreal political thriller...
A beautiful film; exquisite cinematography, locations and costumes. The acting is excellent throughout and the whole film has a fantastic soundtrack and audio mix.
Il Divo is a surreal take on the real-life events of late twentieth- century Italian politics, centred on the life of long-serving politician Giulio Andreotti. For non-Italians and those unfamiliar with the subject matter, it might be best to watch the film twice and to read up on the facts of the story in between.
Possibly, one of the most beautiful political thrillers ever made; dark, haunting, majestic and wonderfully bizarre.
