"Finestradifronte, La" is a masterpiece of the intersection of appetite and lust. It is a story that struggles between lust and reason. The director cuts in with his own unique style, once again showing his ingenuity and wisdom in film choreography. It is worth mentioning that there are a lot of "food" in the film, whether it's a freshly slaughtered chicken body, a variety of mouth-watering delicacies, a mellow Italian coffee or a very delicate baked pastry. Contains various metaphors for "drinking, eating, male, female". "Finestradifronte, La" under the lens of Ozpait is a world full of visual sensory stimulation. The director's narrative technique of jumping in time and space, coupled with the use of suspenseful plots and a very emotional and impactful soundtrack, successfully created a mood that is both bright and gloomy, which makes people obsessed. At the same time, the film's charming and saturated color reflects that under the surface of ordinary life, there is a certain desire for dissatisfaction hidden in the human heart. The end of the film is even more moving than expected.

As far as the movie goes, it deserves four stars, but five stars because I have a special feeling for it. A few years ago, when I was changing channels on a boring afternoon, I watched a few shots on CCTV6 and I kept reciting this film for some reason, as if I had fallen in love with it. Later, some netizens recommended it to me and I liked the original soundtrack of the movie, but I didn't even know it was from this movie. I finally found it today, and I finally got a wish.

The title "Towards the Window" is more relevant than the other two more common translations, "Fate by the Window" and "External Desire". It is neither reserved nor showy, very objective, just like what is described in the film. The secrets that are sealed in the memories of you and me are also the eternal topics that Ferzan Ozpetek's works are keen to discuss, just like life and death. It would be better if the two lines could be separated into chapters. ★★★★
