5 Reasons to See “I Am Love”

I did not love, I Am Love [1], a lush new film, directed by Luca Guadagnino, which peeks into the lives of the very rich. But it was still a pleasurable way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Here’s why:

1. The porcelain Tilda Swinton is riveting, as always
2. John Adams’ pulsating score overshadows the story, but I loved it anyway
3. All the stunning, upper crust clothes designed by Raf Simon of Jil Sander, most of which I couldn’t imagine wearing, were still drool-worthy. (I would have taken any of the purses.)
4. Beautiful countryside of San Remo made me nostalgic for Italy
5. There’s a handy tip for a seating plan I’ll try at my next big dinner party
