“You are Goochee, you need to drehss the paht.” — Al Pacino‘s Aldo Gucci.
Ridley Scott‘s House of Gucci (UA Releasing, 11.24) seems an appropriately chilly nest-of-vipers flick along with a healthy serving of Italian wealth porn.
Set in 1995 (which is not indicated by Blondie‘s “Heart of Glass“) and based on Sara Gay Forden‘s “The House of Gucci: A Sensational Story of Murder, Madness, Glamour, and Greed,” it’s about the murder of Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver, who stands 6′ 2″) by his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga, who is 13 inches shorter).
Famous Reggiani line: “I’ve never worked in my life and I’m certainly not going to start now”.
