1960 · d. Luchino Visconti
Starring Alain Delon, Renato Salvatori, Claudia Cardinale, Annie Girardot
When his rural family seeks better fortunes in Milan, the noble Rocco (Alain Delon, establishing his international stardom) finds success in the boxing ring, but trouble looms when he and a brother become infatuated with the same woman. Unfolding in five chapters—one for each sibling—this sweeping, noir-tinted melodrama from Luchino Visconti (The Leopard) is adored by directors including Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and Bong Joon-Ho.
This screening is presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar taught by Maurizio Giammarco, Ph.D. Seating for screening-only attendees will begin at 1:00 pm. Just want to see the film? Purchase your tickets from this page.
