Review of Three Lives and Only One Death (1996) by Nate W — 11 Jul 2012
Marcello Mastroianni, best known for starring in Fellini's definitive surrealist masterworks, gives an endlessly amusing and beguiling swan song in "Three Lives and Only One Death", one of his final screen performances before his death in 1996.
The film, written and directed by Raoul Ruiz, while not quite comparable to those Fellini classics (but what is?) is none to short on postsurrealism itself, inventively telling four separate (yet sneakily similar) Paris-set stories - all featuring Mastroianni - with wit and an eye unique imagery.
