Cronaca di un amore

Michelangelo Antonioni / IT, 1950

Cronaca di un amore, Antonioni’s feature film debut, already demonstrates the cool elegance and typical style characteristics of his later films, such as the meticulous mise-en scène of two lovers drifting apart. Dispassionate images, suppressed emotions, great cinema. Film programme to accompany the Antonioni exhibition ‘Il maestro del cinema moderno’.
