Quick Glance: La Chimera: Rohrwacher's Genius Overshadowed by Whimsy
- Alice Rohrwacher's genius is intricately tied to her belief that cinema is a natural extension of imagination, rather than a mere reflection.
- La Chimera delves into the economic status of a different class in Italian society and the moral and spiritual cost of sacrificing one's history for quick gains.
- The film blends Fellini-esque aesthetics with scenes on a steam-powered barge and a lively dance at a seaside carnival.
- Despite acclaim at Cannes, La Chimera feels contrived compared to Rohrwacher's previous works, leaning towards excessive whimsy that detracts from the overall impact.
