Youth

Paolo Sorrentino · 2015 CE · Film · Italian · Contemporary

A retired English composer and his oldest friend, a director still hammering out a final screenplay, take the waters at an Alpine hotel among masseurs, a fading star and a beauty queen. An emissary from Buckingham Palace keeps asking the composer to conduct his best-known piece once more. Sorrentino's English-language ensemble divided critics but drew an Oscar nomination.
