The sweltering heat allows for a kind of abandon that may well help you discover yourself anew, possibly for the first time. Laura Luchetti\u2019s touching \u201cThis Beautiful Summer\u201d may tread familiar ground in that regard, but her handsomely mounted Italian period piece brims with a such playfully coy sensibility that you cannot help but fall for its charms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Described as \u201cfreely inspired\u201d by Cesare Pavese\u2019s \u201cLa bella estate,\u201d Luchetti\u2019s film takes place in Turin over the summer of 1938. At its center is Ginia (a transfixing Yile Yara Vianello), a young woman who has moved away from the countryside with her brother in hopes of a more exciting life. Only when we first meet her, it\u2019s easy to see how she\u2019s sheltered herself into a rather rote routine that does nothing but stifle her. She\u2019s a dutiful worker at a downtown atelier where her punctuality and talent as a seamstress and pattern-maker continually impress her boss. And in her times of leisure, she mostly enjoys the company of her brother and his cadre of friends, all of whom insist on a square kind of life. That is, of course, until she meets Amelia (Deva Cassel).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    From the moment this bewitching young woman enters the frame (diving into a lake on whose shores Ginia and her friends are gathered at), Ginia is smitten. Cassel, it\u2019s soon clear, is a wholly magnetic screen presence. For much of \u201cThe Beautiful Summer,\u201d you\u2019re constantly aware of how alluring her Amelia can be, whether she\u2019s coyly asking for a cigarette, blithely talking about her nude modeling work or teasing her newfound friend Ginia into ever more daring territory. \u201cShe\u2019s not like us,\u201d a friend warns Ginia. \u201cThank goodness for that,\u201d Ginia fires back.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    The friendship the two strike once Amelia recognizes something quite intriguing in those furtive glances the young blond seamstress unwittingly lobs her way, unlocks something within Ginia. As she\u2019s embraced by Amelia\u2019s bohemian artistic milieu, where painters introduce her to the joys of absinthe and a kind of antiestablishment joie de vivre, the more Ginia awakens into a version of herself she was once too shy to explore. But how far will she let herself go before the life she\u2019d made for herself starts crumbling before her?<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Set against the backdrop of late 1930s Italy (lovingly re-created by set designer Giancarlo Muselli and interior designer Marco Martucci), where Mussolini speeches on the radio score Ginia\u2019s days (irking her in the process), \u201cThe Beautiful Summer\u201d delights precisely for the gentle way it traces that young woman\u2019s bumbling attempt to discover who she may still wish to become. She\u2019s envious of Amelia, who seems so forward and fearless. She wants her, that much is clear. But just as vexingly, she also wants to be her. And in trying to shuttle between those two desires, and acting on what each of them says about her, Ginia stumbles more than she\u2019d dare admit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    There is, in Luchetti\u2019s moving if overly languid screenplay, the sense that there\u2019s no linear progress to Ginia\u2019s journey. Her heart flutters when she\u2019s near Amelia (as does Francesco Cerasi\u2019s oft-twinkling romantic score), but as she cannot fathom what it is she feels for this newfound friend, she opts at times merely to mirror her. It\u2019s why she keeps insisting she wants to pose nude as Amelia does, thinking that to be gazed at that way will allow her a chance to see herself anew. That is as disconcerting for the young, wily model as it is for Ginia\u2019s brother and friends, as well as for the various bohemian artists Ginia keeps trying to impress, seduce and later avoid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Even as \u201cThe Beautiful Summer\u201d hits familiar beats about same-sex desires, youthful awakenings and artistic ambitions crippled by traditional mores, Luchetti\u2019s film is most rewarding as an acting showcase for Vianello and Cassel. One a budding flower, the other a prickly rose, the actresses imbue Ginia and Amelia with the complexity those young women deserve, offering revealing performances that thrive on stolen gazes and wordless gestures. Moreover, even as its lush production harkens back to more old-fashioned romantic dramas, its sound design (particularly during a sex scene at an artist\u2019s quarters and later still during a joyful dance between the two young women) keeps the film squarely anchored to a contemporary sensibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    In the end, this is a tender tale befitting its summer trappings. It is wistful and witty, sultry and soothing. But above all, a balm best enjoyed by those thirsting after a coming-of-age tale that while looking at the past is emboldened by our vibrant present and an even more daring vision of the future.<\/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.
