Following the global success of Past Lives, director Celine Song makes her grand return with the most anticipated romantic comedy of the season, Materialists, starring three exceptional stars: Pedro Pascal, Dakota Johnson and Chris Evans. New York City, today. Lucy is a “matchmaker”: her job is to pair up singles based on certain parameters, which mainly have to do with the socio-economic status and physical attractiveness of the two people involved. During the wedding party of a couple she brought together, Lucy sees John again, the man with whom she shared a great love story but whom she left because, as a penniless actor, he could not give her the comforts she demanded - and in fact, he is still working as a waiter at the wedding. In the same circumstances, sitting at the singles table, Lucy also encounters Harry, who according to her professional standards is a “unicorn”: super rich, charming, polite, witty and looking for a serious relationship. From that moment on, Lucy is torn between two men who represent two opposing possibilities for her future.

One of Studio Ghibli's and Japanese animated cinema's absolute masterpieces returns to the big screen at Giunti Odeon: the poignant Grave of the Fireflies, the most famous film by Isao Takahata, Hayao Miyazaki's mentor. In the final days of World War II, an American bombing raid kills the mother of 14-year-old Seita and his 4-year-old sister Setsuko. Left alone and with nowhere to go, the two try to survive in the Japanese countryside. After arguing with their only remaining relative, Seita tries to take care of himself and Setsuko, finding shelter in an abandoned refuge and stealing food. But with resources becoming increasingly scarce, the two siblings have no choice but to cling to brief moments of happiness in a world now in ruins.

Giunti Odeon is hosting a special evening dedicated to all horror movie lovers with the film that is terrifying the whole world: The Conjuring - Last Rites, the last installment of the famous horror saga. Five years after the trial of Arne Johnson, the Warrens have left their investigative work to devote themselves to university work. However, when work is scarce, the two decide to take on one last case, that of Janet and Jack Smurl, whose house seems to be home to a supernatural entity.

To mark the release of Paul Thomas Anderson's eagerly awaited new film, One Battle After Another (showing at Giunti Odeon from September 25), we pay tribute to the great American director with a special screening of one of his most famous films, Inherent Vice, which will be presented for the occasion by writer Massimo Carlotto. Both films are based on novels by Thomas Pynchon. Doc Sportello, a crazy hippie who hangs out on Gordita Beach and is a part-time private investigator, is approached by his ex, Shasta Fey, who entrusts him with a complicated case. Suspicious of the intrigues surrounding her new lover, the real estate developer Wolfmann, she wants to prevent him from being forcibly hospitalized. Doc doesn't even have time to start his investigation before he ends up being accused of murder by his friend-enemy Bigfoot, a homicide detective.
