Americans, like people the world over, are attracted by celebrity, particularly since here in the U.S. more people have TVs than bathtubs.  We\u2019re all an audience.  But how many people seriously think that they can themselves become famous, so much so that people will turn their heads when they walk down the street?  Probably most give it a moment of thought, but the principal character of Matteo Garrone\u2019s \u201cReality\u201d becomes so convinced that he is about to be the kind of guy who\u2019d have to chase away the paparazzi  that he loses touch with reality, conducting himself in such a way that his devoted wife is at her wit\u2019s end while watching her main man self-destruct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReality\u201d shifts between comedy and drama, weighing more toward the latter, which is not unusual since its director, Matteo Garrone, is best known for his strikingly melodramatic \u201cGomorrah,\u201d a Neopolitan mob film that exposes Italy\u2019s underbelly by showing five individuals making a compact with the area\u2019s mafia.  \u201cReality,\u201d like \u201cGamorrah,\u201d won the Grand Prix after its showing at the Cannes Film Festival, the latter being in my opinion the more striking motion picture.<\/p>\n<p>Garrone may have been inspired by the Hollywood picture \u201cThe King of Comedy,\u201d Martin Scorsese\u2019s comedy-drama that explores the lengths to which a nobody will go to be as famous as his idol.  In that American version, Rupert Pupkin thinks that one appearance on the Johnny Carson show will be his ticket to stardom, though unlike anything that occurs in \u201cReality,\u201d Pupkin kidnaps the producer demanding as ransom the TV appearance that will turn his fantasy into reality.<\/p>\n<p>Garrone contrasts a lavish opening scene of an expensive wedding with the poverty of the average Neopolitan family.  The wedding features a coach with two dancing horses escorting the bride and groom into an applauding roomful of invitees, with actor Luciano (Aniello Arena) performing as a drag queen with  Enzo (Raffaele Ferrante), an Italian celeb.  Luciano makes ends week together with his partner Michele (Nando Paone) in a fish stand in Naples\u2019 old city while running a scam on the side with his wife Maria (Loredana Simioli) selling kitchen robots.  Enzo helps Luciano audition for an Italian version of \u201cBig Brother,\u201d a reality that had been founded by John de Mol and which allows viewers to vote by phone on which residents of a filmed house should be evicted.  When Luciano auditions at Rome\u2019s Cinecitt\u00e0 studios, he\u2019s sure he made enough of an impression to have the producers overlook scores of people lining up for an opportunity to appear on the show.  So convinced is he, and so sure that the show has sent scouts to vet Luciano\u2019s character, that he gives away his own furniture to the poor and sets up a soup kitchen for them.<\/p>\n<p>Garrone is at his best when honing in both the haute-bourgeois characters in the beautifully photographed opening wedding scene, contrasting them with the lower middle-class population of the Neopolitan area, many of whom are obese, and all assumed to be members of Luciano\u2019s extended family.  He is encouraged by many in the town, though not by at least one woman who is victim of the scam and who loudly demands her money.  Only Luciano\u2019s wife provides a dose of reality, trying to convince her husband that the odds of being chosen work against him.<\/p>\n<p>The movie may be criticized by some for not finding a unified tone, shifting from broad comedy to serious drama, but Garrone overcomes audience doubts by seamlessly weaving in the comic with the melodramatic.  Perhaps even more interesting than the entire picture is the fact that the lead performer, Aniello Arena, was discovered from a prison troupe (something like what goes on in Pablo Taviani\u2019s 2012 film \u201cCaesar Must Die,\u201d wherein a group of prison theps prepare to stage \u201cJulius Caesar\u201d before a crowd of upscale theater-goers).  Arena is currently serving a twenty-to -life term for two murders, giving him a dose of fantasy come true as he performs in Rome and Naples presumably with prison guards lurking nearby off camera.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unrated. 115 minutes \u00a9 2013 by Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/p>\n<p>Story \u2013 B<\/p>\n<p>Acting \u2013 B+<\/p>\n<p>Technical \u2013
