Rating:  - Tragedy vs. Triumph: Not Allowing Yourself to be Loved
Wow do I love this movie!! It captures the true essence of needing to be loved. Gia just couldn't allow herself to be loved; she believed she didn't deserve true devotion and love. There was so much "artificial love" surrounding her that she didn't know herself what "true love" was. I am so moved by this movie that I can't wait to buy a copy. I have rented it over 25 times since it was released on video. Angelina Jolie did an excellent job and was so into her character. I am so glad that she won the Golden Globe for her performance. She is awesome!! I love how the movie made you look at life and not to take anything forgranted. Strive for your dreams and most importantly follow your heart. I learned to rely on the people who love me and not to try and handle my problems on my own. Tell that special person that you love them; and cherish everyday. Go rent it today and you will be touched.
Rating:  - A very moving, absolutely gorgeous film
Michael Cristofer couldn't have selected a more perfect actress to portray Gia Carangi than Angelina Jolie - Jolie's in-your-face attitude complements Carangi's bad-girl persona perfectly. Elizabeth Mitchell's portrayal of Linda is similarly excellent - the chemistry between the two women is phenomenal. Even apart from the casting, though, the movie is outstanding - aesthetically, it blows me away every time I see it (and only partly because Jolie is so beautiful.) The direction, the sound track, everything about this film is top-notch.The story itself is touching, engaging, and heart-wrenching; watching the young Gia destroy her life with drugs, even choosing drugs over the love of her life, is a very emotional experience. I end up in tears every time I see the movie, and I enjoy it every time. Mercedes Ruehle does a great job as Gia's mom, expertly conveying the nuances of her own neuroses, and expressing her conflicting emotions regarding her troubled daughter. I can't say enough good things about "Gia;" I really recommend it to Jolie fans, Carangi fans, or anyone who enjoys a good, tragic love story.
Rating: - My Favorite Movie of All Time
Gia. One word says it all. Real life story of tragic supermodel is the best film i've ever seen. Beautifully written and directly with absolutely fabulous music and photo shoot montages not to mention the acting which is incredible. Gia's mother is wonderfully portrayed as a typically east-coast neurotic not all there mother. Lynda is played so realisticly i doubt that i can even consider any woman straight again. Every supporting actor on screen is wonderful. But of course the reason why this movie is so good is Angelina Jolie. An amazing actress in an amazing movie shines as bright as any star around. Carrying her role through the highs and lows of Gia which were so draining she EARNED her place in the hollywood elite. The story itself is an extremely remarble one drawing from real life, real people and the diary of the main character's namesake. A profoundly tragic flim which should not for those who cry easily. Don't rent this film if your in the mood for a feel good comedy! This is a film that requires a box of tissues!!! Simply my favorite film of all time.
