Emilia looks timid in this, like she's focused on the roses in life and trys to leave the big easy to notice oil problem where it stays (because that's what eveyone else does). I saw her do a 180° turn in this thing. Something had gotten her attention, it was a dog wearing a backpack full of methadone walking near the mayor(he looked good). She looked good (powerful stare). From that day on they were made to imagine what it looks like when each one of them lays in their bed alone and stares at the sky.

Feels so random to me

"The Only One" is a one-minute live action short film from 2017 and not in black-and-white as you could think from the photo posted here. I guess the main reason why this has an imdb entry is because Matteo Garrone (Dogman) directed and the actress at its core is Emilia Clarke from Game of Thrones. Accompanied by the guitar, she starts singing the Italian version of Quando Quando Quando. Well, she does a good job and it is a nice atmosphere with the audience joining in clapping and it is simply a nice tune, even if this version here is of course not on Engelbert Humperdinck's level or so. But I kinda like Emilia (although Game of Thrones never did anything for me), usually more with dark hair though, and it probably would have been a worse watch (and listen too maybe) without her overall. Nonetheless, it needs to be said that this is a brief commercial for Dolce & Gabbana and honestly, from that perspective it feels truly random. This could have been for any other perfume manufacturer as well, or also for any kind of company from the fashion industry and for many many other enterprises as well except car manufacturers perhaps. These also love making (usually much longer) commercials with big name stars. Still, the sets, costumes and locations here are kinda nice and at approximately 60 seconds you're not doing too much wrong. If you like Emilia, give it a chance, otherwise skip it. You're not missing much. All in all, it just isn't enough for me contents-wise, not even for this running time, so I give it a thumbs-down.
