Review of Gia

Gia (1998 TV Movie)
8/10
A Very Brilliant Work Of Art!
4 January 2008
Gia is a film that is very hard to make. And once if such kinds of films are properly made, It is something to die for...

It is based on a True Story about Famous Model GIA who died of HIV. It is a journey of a Super Model that is narrated and told in a way that it makes you feel witness to her life. The story narration of the film is so gripping that it actually makes you Sit Tight and watch. The film is narrated through her Mother, Friends, Co-Workers, And some close people who knew her. No doubt that Gia was a Controversial Model but somewhere inside, She was also a Kid too.

From the Performance Part, Trust me i have started worshiping actress Angelina Jolie for the way that she had performed in this film. Earlier i never used to like this actress because for the simple reason that i had never seen this Masterpiece. But after watching GIA, I can say that no actress is so talented as Angelina Jolie. She makes you believe that it is only her who could have brought GIA live! The scene where GIA dies will definitely bring tears to your eyes. The pain that GIA goes through was also very powerfully executed by the actress.

The camera work of this film is just brilliant. The DP has played with colors and darkness equally. The camera work moves through the Script and the Performance. Hats Off! To the film maker who chose such a wonderful film and made it into Masterpiece. These are some of the films that you MUST watch before you DIE!!
