The Last Days of Disco / 19986.76 voti

Gli ultimi giorni della disco music sono quelli a cavallo tra i '70 e gli '80 quando Alice (C. Sevigny) e Charlotte (K. Beckinsale), neolaureate all'Hampshire College e modeste consulenti editoriali in una casa editrice di New York, riescono, dopo aver avuto accesso al club-discoteca più esclusivo di Manhattan, a frequentare un gruppo di giovani, rampanti e facoltosi yuppie. Elegia nostalgica di un effimero fenomeno musicalmente frivolo e sociologicamente futile? Molto parlato, elegante nel suo snobismo, in mimetica simbiosi con il suo argomento, per fortuna è “un film essenzialmente antropologico, orizzontale, senza particolari punte emotive ... freddo, ancorché appassionato, e prosaico come l'universo che rievoca” (Anton Giulio Macino).
