      Ian W Uncomfortable viewing at times. Janie is obsessed with an actor - Paolo - and ends up at his house. As the two get to know each other, Janie discovers that he is a deeply flawed person. As Janie realizes the difference between real Paolo and the screen image, it brings clarity to her own real life. Deftly made and absorbing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
