Nine

Nine (2009) is a musical drama from director Rob Marshall you can watch online on iFILM. Adapted from the Broadway show that grew out of Fellini's 8½, it stars Daniel Day-Lewis as a filmmaker out of ideas.

Italian director Guido Contini is supposed to start shooting in a week. The trouble is there's no script, no spark, just panic and a crowd of women around him. His wife, who sees through everything. His mistress, who wants more. His muse, his costume designer, his mother, the screen legend from his past. Each one pulls at him, and he owes something to all of them. Between rehearsals and bedroom escapes, he tries to find out whether any music is left inside him at all.

The women are played by Marion Cotillard, Penélope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Kate Hudson and Sophia Loren. Marshall cuts between Guido's real life and big stage numbers sung by the cast themselves. If you like musicals or films about creative burnout, stream Nine online on iFILM.
