Like Crazy (La Pazza Gioia)

AroView: Gratifying comedy-drama following two women, one a troubled introvert (Micaela Ramazzotti), the other an impassioned mythomaniac (Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi), who break out of a psychiatric facility together and develop an unlikely friendship while on the run.

“The film’s freewheeling energy is as appealing as its developments are unpredictable.” ~Screen International

“Boasting a deliriously loquacious script together with a rare understanding of how to balance certain Italian caricatures with a grounding sense of realism – a combination that’s truly Virzì’s forte – the film takes two psychologically damaged women…and makes them into a mutually supportive duo who surprisingly touch our emotions.” ~Jay Weissberg, Variety
