La Notte Nice film and a really nice transfer. Though it would have been nice to have a commentary or more extras (as Criterions Antonioni-DVDs. But the value for money is good anyway, and this rich film can be watched several times. Recommended.
Not the Best of Antonioni's Trilogy about loneliness When I say "about loneliness" what I mean is that our western civilization has imposed individualism over solidariry. Of the French Revolution's motto "Liberté , Egalité, Fraternité" only the first one remains and not with the best results. Antinioni was a very pessimistic man. It shows here too much. His earlier films like "Il Grido" and some of the later like L'Eclisse are superior. I have the Fox Lorber American version of La Notte and that also compares badly with... more info
Striking... How simple and truthful Antonioni managed to tell about a souring marriage relationship. How love was once and becomes after, yet still indispensable... So realistic, so direct that it hurts sometimes. Yet, an experience that must be faced. And of course Marcello Mastroianni and Jeanne Moreau... Just watching their floating throughout the film, their faces, moves... Fascinating...Especialy from Antonioni's perspective with great camera angles.
