A story of narcissism and its impact on a famous family
10 January 2022
House of Gucci is a movie full of famous actors. Lady Gaga is a convincing Patrizia Reggiani, an Italian girl from the Province of Modena who wanted to achieve more in life. Hunting for a potential rich man she goes to parties and at one of these she meets Maurizio Gucci (portrayed by Adam Driver).

The story of Patrizia and Maurizio Gucci, their rise and fall, the dynamics of manipulation, betrayal at the cost of trust around this family and its business is well set, though evolves a bit slow. The best performance in the movie by far though was by Jared Leto as Paolo Gucci, Maurizo's cousin.

Overall, it is an entertaining movie portraying a story about a family, about a brand and a tragedy. Recommended to everyone who wants to look behind the curtain of the myth behind a world-known brand and its drama.
