An academic but intriguing critique from a filmmaker who should be remembered for more than just being Javier Bardem’s uncle.
Death of a Cyclist too often settles for academic subversion.
Ingmar Bergman dies in the morning. Michelangelo Antonioni dies at night. On the same day. In the middle of summer.
The unsurpassed beauty of Antonioni’s visual art lifts his two-penny story and hollow people into the exalted realm of the senses.
A fantastic package of an essential and rare Antonioni feature, surely one of the best DVDs of the year.
