Details
A talented but callow novelist (Marcello Mastroianni) enjoys the acclaim afforded his just-published novel, while his marriage to a well-to-do Milanese woman (Jeanne Moreau) deteriorates. As she grieves for a dying friend she once loved, he is both bemused by and attracted to the advances of other women, particularly the ravishing daughter (Monica Vitti) of a potential new benefactor. An empty evening of visiting decrepit neighborhoods, exotic nightclubs and a swanky villa party leads to a final confrontation, which reveals the somber truth that love does not always conquer all. The second film in a famous trilogy (along with L’AVVENTURA and L’ECLISSE) by the legendary director Michelangelo Antonioni, LA NOTTE captures the intoxicating glamour and amorality of Italy’s postwar nuovi ricchi. The film is even more sumptuous in a restoration from a 4K scan of a 35mm fine-grain print. DIR/SCR Michelangelo Antonioni; SCR Ennio Flaiano, Tonino Guerra; PROD Emanuele Cassuto. Italy/France, 1961, b&w, 122 min. In Italian with English subtitles. NOT RATED
