HONEY

Cinemavixion Review

Gianfranco Angelucci's 1981 film "Honey" (also known as "Miele di donna") is a curious exploration of youthful innocence colliding with a world of unspoken desires and hidden lives. Starring Clio Goldsmith as the naive Annie, the film draws viewers into a hotel setting that transcends its conventional function, becoming a stage for observation and fascination. Goldsmith's performance anchors the narrative as Annie navigates this environment, her attention drawn to the hotel's staff and, more intriguingly, to a mysterious, silent occupant of a forbidden room. The presence of seasoned actors Catherine Spaak and Fernando Rey adds depth to the ensemble. While the film's reception is noted as having a 5.0/10 rating on IMDb, its thematic explorations offer a unique, if sometimes unsettling, cinematic experience that invites contemplation on perception and the hidden narratives within everyday spaces.
