Review of The Leopard (1963) by Cille I — 20 Oct 2009
It's impossible not to be impressed by the sweep and grandeur of this movie. The sets and costumes are jaw-dropping displays of opulence and extravagance, and gorgeously photographed too. The amount of time, thought, planning and money that must have gone into this is staggering.
Definitely an A+ for effort. I enjoyed the theme of Don Fabrizio's coming to terms with his own obsolescence, as not only his mortal death looms near, but also the death of his way of life and position in society.
