Malèna is about the peril of a beauty through the eyes of a 12 year old kid named Renato. He experiences three things on the same day, beginning of war, getting a bike and sees the arrival of Malèna in town. Through his eyes, we see the curse of beauty and loneliness of Malena, whose husband is presumed to be dead, and through his soul we see his love for her.

Malena Ratings & Reviews

  • arturghazaryan532May 9, 2025
    Best movie I have ever seen
  • rajmoonlightApril 10, 2025
    An unsettling depiction of a woman perceived through others eyes, particularly the male gaze. This film invites us to pick apart the Madonna and the whore paradigm, and really see Malena.
