Grido da *****

Written on 14. April 2025 by Enrico.
This customer review refers to a alternative version.

Il Grido di Michelangelo Antonioni è da annoverare tra i capolavori del grande regista scomparso (1912-2007). Si avvale della grande interpretazione dei due attori principali, Steve Cochran in particolare) e Alida Valli. Storia drammatica con in finale agghiacciante con al centro la disperazione di un uomo violento quanto frustrato dalla vita e da un amore travagliato. Notevoli i lunghi ‘campi’ del regista nel descrivere luoghi di impressionante squallore e atmosfere permeate di profonda tristezza. In bellissimo e toccante film rafforzato da un bianco e nero di ottima qualità. Da recuperare assolutamente in DVD!
