A FIVE STAR LIFE - Italian movie about hotel evaluator

November 19, 2013 08:48AM
Just came back from a screening of this Italian movie, (Viaggio Sola or Traveling Solo) soon to be released in the US as A Five Star Life. Story line features a typical "mystery guest"--a single middle-aged female, unattached with no children, flying around Europe shopping 5 star hotels. You'll see her going through her routine, critiquing everything from entrance, reception, hotel room, restaurant, spa and room service, constantly checking her watch and penning her "novella" narratives.

Part Up in the Air, part Eat Pray Love, drama and comedy are effortlessly fused in this clever and stylish world-tour of hotels in Paris, Berlin, the Alps, and Marrakesh.

The director was in attendance at the screening and commented that a typical evaluation has approximately 800 questions. I receive email notifications for these shops, but have yet to request one for just that reason.

How long before we see a reality show? And not one like "mystery Diners", a realistic one.

There will never be a realistic show about hotel evaluating because it's generally pretty boring.

Prior to 'Mystery Diners', Travel Channel had a show called 'Hotel Spies' that did not go over well. It was not even slightly realistic, but it was funny.

The movie sounds fabulous! it's rare to see something like that that us shoppers can relate to. Was it subtitled?
