    CRUELLA

    Cruella is an American crime comedy film directed by Craig Gillespie based on the character
    Cruella de Vil from Dodie Smith’s novel The Hundred and One Dalmatians. The movie is set on
    the 70s in London.

    Estella is a young and creative fashion designer, who associated with a couple of thieves,
    Jasper and Horace, to survive at London streets. However, when her fashion talent attracts
    Baroness van Hellman attention, Estella decides to change the course of her life, until a series
    of events lead her to take on her evil side and become the evil character of Cruella.

    The great strength of this fil is how the character of Estella is revealed. Despite having the
    typical devices common to criminal movies, the film recreates properly the history of this
    empowered women. My only criticism would be that the first half of the film goes on too long
    and perhaps could have been more shortest

    In my opinion is an absolutely interesting movie, which perfectly recreates the warrior attitude
    of women. Moreover, the soundtrack of the film transports you the 70s decade and the
    comics, Joel Fry (Jasper) and Paul Walter Hauser (Horace) deliver the coup-de-gras to the film
    to make it more attractive.
