Moretti premiered his last film, “Tre Piani,” at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, where he has become a regular in competition. He won the Palme d’Or in 2001 for his incredible tragedy drama “The Son’s Room.” I don’t believe he’s been able to match that film in his ensuing 4 features, although he came damn close with 2015’s “Mia Madre.” I did not like the soap-ish “Tre Piani” when I saw it last July. I wrote in my Cannes dispatch: “Tre Piani,” the story of three families living in three apartments in the same bourgeois condominium in Italy, belongs nowhere near [the official] competition. In fact, it’s so melodramatic and sentimental that it would be no surprise at all to find something similar like it on Telemundo.” I can see Moretti saving this film for Cannes 2023 or, potentially, premiering it in his home country in September when the Venice Film Festival is set to occur.
