Up at the Villa

Academy Award®-nominee Kristin Scott Thomas plays a beautiful yet penniless English woman vacationing in Florence in 1938. Choosing between suitors as a means of survival, the mysterious woman cannot help but long for financial independence. Unfortunately, a series of horrendous events force her to depend on one duplicitous character after another. A sinuous, dark psychological drama featuring alluring and intriguing performances from Academy Award® winners Sean Penn and Anne Bancroft, "Up at the Villa" is a riveting, puzzling work in the vein of Hitchcock's finest.
