Genres, Themes, Actors, and Directors:
Review: … Mastroianni is briefly seduced by a disturbed young woman (Maria Pia Luzi) down the hall: … while nonchalant Moreau wanders the streets of Milan, observing life and landscapes around her. That night, the couple head first to a nightclub, where they watch an erotic dance: … and then to a party, which takes up the entire second half of the film. Mastroianni is attracted to the daughter (Vitti) of the party host (Vincenzo Corbella): … while Moreau allows herself to be distracted by a man (Giorgio Negro) who’s shown interest in her. As with most other Antonioni films of the period, that just about sums up the narrative. While it’s beautifully shot, this one is only must-see for fans of his work.
