The Great Beauty

Welcome to Uncertain Age! This week, AR (Anna) Nicholas and Dale Basye gaze lovingly at Paolo Sorrentino’s 2013 cinematic masterpiece, The Great Beauty.

With its breathtaking cinematography and melancholic humor, The Great Beautyinvites us to reflect on the passage of time and the illusions of grandeur.
