Review of La Notte (1961) by Martin T — 19 Oct 2009
It's hard to enjoy something that makes you feel dead inside, even when you respect how Antonioni achieves it. Each part of his "alienation trilogy" is interesting in its own way. They all compel me to return to them, despite finding them sometimes hard to sit through.
This one allows the deepest connections with its characters, with less of a distancing effect than the others. The way Antonioni works mood and meaning into the film is remarkable... but again, a little dull at points, too.
