Just saw this and loved it. Like a Neorealist Opera.  Looking forward to watching more Visconti. |

Another remarkable film of Visconti’s neo-realistic period of works is La Terra Trema, with a cast solely consisting of Sicilian fishermen. Very impressive.

Yes it is a striking work - "operatic" is right.... a swaggering, masculine epic of fraternal bonding.
Of those you have yet to see I'd say SENSO, WHITE NIGHTS, THE LEOPARD all good, and CONVERSATION PIECE very good and THE DAMNED absolutely unforgettable (and even more operatic).
SANDRA and THE INNOCENT both OK - Did not care much for WE THE WOMEN, or THE WITCHES
Liked OSSESSIONE - Disliked DEATH IN VENICE
