That leaves Maurizio, blossoming like a poison flower under his wife’s toxic guidance, to seize control. And Driver, whose accent is the film’s subtlest, makes a feast tracing Maurizio’s arc from timid mouse to cheating husband and dangerous tyrant.
It’s a matter of public record that a year after Maurizo divorced Patrizia in 1995, she hired two hitmen—with the help of her psychic friend Pina —to kill her ex-husband outside his Milan office, resulting in a conviction and a media reputation as the “Black Widow.” Wowza! Scott crams three decades of Gucci drama into a running time just short of three hours. OK, the film drags when Gaga is off screen. But there’s more family in-fighting, tribal backstabbing and betrayals in these blood ties than a marathon of “Succession.”Patrizia has complained that Gaga never spoke to her in preparation for the movie, which the actress feared could be construed as “collusion.” No matter.
Scott’s keen eye for casting extends to Jack Huston as quietly menacing family lawyer Domenico De Sole, and Reeve Carney, of Broadway’s “Hadestown,” is terrific as Tom Ford, the young Texas designer who raised the faltering Gucci empire out of the ashes.And there you have it. The ultra-glam fashion shows, the Gucci knockoffs that Aldo designs himself, the sinful glee of the rich abusing their privileges, accents that range from barely acceptable to an “SNL” parody of Roberto Benigni.
But why judge this movie too harshly as its swerves from comedy to tragedy and back again while giving actors and audiences free reign to go bananas. If there’s such a thing as a fun ride into the dark night of the soul, “House of Gucci” is it. And it’s a doozy.
I like Gucci and Xmas 🎄
Stop trying to promote it. This movie is just boring.

A seductive guilty pleasure... wow, it's a sign of our time. So many shows have that as a theme. I'm afraid we're pretty far down that road...
