Tora! Tora!,\u201d any film with an exclamation point in the title should by rights be a spangly, full-scale musical. A frothy tale of warring classical music sensibilities in a Venetian girls\u2019 refuge, \u201cGloria!\u201d stops short of complete commitment to that rule \u2014 but it\u2019s when it fully suspends reality for all-singing, all-stamping choral ecstasy that Margherita Vicario\u2018s uneven debut is most exciting. Elsewhere, this mixture of starchy costume drama and contemporary, youth-oriented feminist uplift is hampered by hoarily formulaic <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>ing, with stock characters and plot points that don\u2019t match up with Vicario\u2019s more elevated artistic ambitions. Still, it\u2019s hard to take against the film\u2019s eager energy, which is sure to win over festival audiences \u2014 beginning at Berlin, where it nabbed a somewhat generous Competition berth \u2014 and home crowds in Italy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Galatea Bellugi \u2014 whom arthouse audiences will recognize as the mousy kitchen assistant in \u201cThe Taste of Things\u201d \u2014 gets a more expressive breakout role here as Teresa, a prodigiously gifted young composer who endures a Cinderella-level <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> status at the Sant\u2019Ignazio Institute, a convent-like Catholic shelter for orphaned or outcast young women. There, residents are musically trained by dour chapel master Perlina (Paolo Rossi), a Salieri-type figure whose unforgiving authority rather exceeds his modest talent as a composer and conductor. Any \u201cAmadeus\u201d allusions hardly feel accidental: Vicario fashions her story as a clash of old and new guards in 18th-century baroque music, with the new guard not a brash young buck but a sweetly rebellious female collective.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Admitted to the Institute after giving birth to an illegitimate son \u2014 in covert, darkly abusive circumstances that the film treats a bit coyly \u2014 Teresa is treated by both the masters and the other girls as an unworthy servant, excluded from all music lessons as she spends her days cleaning up after her supposed superiors. Little do they know she has original symphonies in her fingertips, and she does little to tell them: \u201cThe Mute\u201d is her nickname at the Institute, said by all with a sneer. Of the more fortunate girls, the queen bee is Lucia (Carlotta Gamba), the Institute\u2019s first violin, who is skilled if not especially inspired in her playing, and has an eye on escape via her courtship with wealthy dreamboat Cristiano (Vincenzo Crea). <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Teresa\u2019s abilities are unlocked, however, when a local craftsman gifts the Institute with a modern and immediately distrusted instrument: a piano. Perlina, deeming it an unholy alternative to the trusty organ, consigns it to the basement, where the lowly maid happens upon it, and immediately gets the hang of its keys. Teresa\u2019s playing is deliberately and pointedly anachronistic, influenced more by the pop and jazz of centuries to come than by anything heard in the Institute. When the other girls, hearing traces of her melodies from upstairs, discover The Mute\u2019s full capacity for joyful noise, they immediately welcome her into the fold, though Lucia, bound to Perlina\u2019s austere traditionalism, is wary. And with Pope Pius VII due to visit the Institute for a performance \u2014 just as Perlina is hit with a severe case of composer\u2019s block \u2014 the stage is set for a musical uprising. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cGloria!\u201d is thus nominally anchored in history, an impression enhanced by elegantly moldering production design by Luca Servino and Susanna Abenavoli, and costume designer Mary Montalto\u2019s ruffled, time-stained, pastel-faded gowns. But it\u2019s modelled as much as anything on countless let\u2019s-put-on-show entertainments through Hollywood history, a kind of distant Italian descendant of \u201cSister Act.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Given Vicario\u2019s own background as a popular singer-songwriter, this fast-and-loose approach to authenticity makes sense. The film uses modernized compositions, in particular, to bind its young female characters to a feminist movement still many generations ahead of them: By the time a climactic rearrangement of Vivaldi\u2019s eponymous hymn throws in a bass drop or two, the point is perhaps a bit heavily made, but it\u2019s mischievous enough to forgive. The music that Teresa hears in her head is intended to gesture at another, brighter world \u2014 as it does early on, when a scene of her daily domestic routine briefly quickens into a fully choreographed music daydream sequence, before snapping back into place.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cGloria!\u201d could use more of these lilting, heightened flourishes: When it plays things straight as drama, things get a little fusty, and Vicario\u2019s inexperience as a storyteller is emphasized. Bellugi gives a sufficiently winsome performance to paper over the essential dullness of her character, as Teresa pivots from noble martyr to inspiring leader, while her female peers are largely conceived in cheery girlboss shorthand. Perlina is an accordingly one-note antagonist, sufficiently generic in his villainy to stand in for the patriarchy as a whole. The soaring motivational message here wouldn\u2019t be clipped by a little interior conflict on either side, but \u201cGloria!\u201d is all about chasing the highest of high notes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
