I would certainly recommend any of the films that I mentioned in my post. PLAYING BY HEART and LIFE OR SOMETHING LIKE IT are both quite good as well.
Actually, I own GIA. (As well as WANTED.)
GIA is magnificent. It’s beautifully acted. Even though it was technically a motion picture for HBO it has the depth and prestige of a theatrical release.
ANGELINA was just beginning to make her mark as a classic Hollywood movie star in 1998. In many respects, GIA put her on the map. She’s gorgeous and incredibly magnetic. You can not look away. FAYE DUNAWAY plays WILHELMINA COOPER, GIA’S agent. MILA KUNIS portrays GIA as a little girl.
GIA CARANGI was an amazing model that had a lot of success in the 80s. Sadly, she fell into drug abuse, became a heroin addict, contracted AIDS and died very young.
So it’s a glamorous story populated by all kinds of interesting characters. It’s dark and tragic. But it’s definitely worth seeing.
I think you’d like it, glim.
