we went to see le conseguenze dell'amore, directed by paolo sorrentino, shot in a quiet swiss boutique hotel. an elegant, starched old couple live in a room in this hotel they once owned - and gambled away - whiling the evenings away playing card games and recounting cherished belongings they've pawned. the others: a hit man with a face like a hawk. a barmaid with legs like a child but languid gray-green eyes and a slow smile. a stoic stockbroker who shoots up every wednesday at 10 a.m., a look of ennui etched into his face.
afterward, we tried to practice our own looks of ennui.
