The Damned
En parallèle du cycle d’adaptations filmiques des œuvres de Michel Marc Bouchard que nous présentons, nous avons proposé à l’auteur de se prêter au jeu de la carte blanche et de programmer quelques films qui lui tiennent à cœur : c’est ainsi qu’il nous entraîne dans un voyage personnel à travers le cinéma italien, où se croisent films de grands maîtres et œuvres contemporaines, fresques splendides et chroniques intimes.
The rise and fall of a rich industrialist family during the reign of the Third Reich.
Luchino Visconti
Luchino Visconti di Modrone, Count of Lonate Pozzolo (2 November 1906 – 17 March 1976) was an Italian filmmaker, stage director, and screenwriter. A major figure of Italian art and culture in the mid-20th century, Visconti was one of the fathers of cinematic neorealism, but later moved towards luxurious, sweeping epics dealing with themes of beauty, decadence, death, and European history, especially the decay of the nobility and the bourgeoisie. He was the recipient of many accolades, including the Palme d'Or and the Golden Lion, and many of his works are regarded as highly-influential to future generations of filmmakers.
