Review of L'Avventura (1960) by Danny D — 12 Jan 2010
Often considered by critics to be one of the 5 or so greatest films in italian cinema history, l'avventura definitely has its strengths, the greatest of which are its striking images. the locations and cinematography are some of the best ever put on film despite the picture quality being less than par for a film in this era.
the actors also played their roles well. really all around the film delivers on an overall concept that is incredibly unique. initially I was disappointed in the anti climatic nature of the end of the film, but with time ive come to get over this as the film improves in my memory.
monica vitti is always beautiful and antonioni might be my favorite italian director.
