What critics compared Ship of Fools to
Set in an upscale Swiss spa (and shot on location at the Berghotel Schatzalp, the inspiration for Thomas Mann's "The Magic Mountain"), "Youth" is a kind of landlocked "Ship of Fools" following the interactions of several characters during their stay at the resort.
Sorrentino entrecruza sus historias y reúne a las celebridades a la manera de aquellos dramas sentimentales que el cine hollywoodense solía concentrar en un espacio fastuoso, ya fuera Grand hotel (Edmund Goulding, 1932) o, con menor glamour, La nave del mal (Ship of fools, Stanley Kramer, 1965), según la novela homónima de Katherine Anne Porter.
