‘Woman is Fickle’ is based on the famous aria from the opera Rigoletto by Verdi. No woman is safe from the dissolute Duke of Mantua, who dreams of naked, languid beauties. But he also complains about their capriciousness. The women in the film refer to famous paintings: by Matisse, Botticelli, Degas. The film is a trip through male fantasies, seen through the eyes of a woman.
On one May day in 1864, N. G. Chernyshevsky, a writer and revolutionary democrat, was declared a state criminal and sentenced to hard labor in Siberian mines.
Set in the Bronx during the tumultuous 1960s, an adolescent boy is torn between his honest, working-class father and a violent yet charismatic crime boss.
An interesting attempt at a postmodern crazy comedy with elements of parody. The plot turns on the search for the recipe of a liqueur made by the film’s financial backer.
