Film Description

The first part of a loose trilogy which also comprises La Notte and L'Eclisse. A woman goes missing, and as they vainly search for her, a couple tentatively fall in love. Ragged of structure, rambling and fresco-like, this vision of an alienated middle-class broke with classical storytelling, suggesting that beginnings, middles and endings don't come in that order in life.

Films Jeremy Paxman Won't Like by Alan Boshier

The recent deaths of Ingmar Bergman and Michelangelo Antonioni were marked in fulsomely philistine fashion by BBC's Newsnight programme; in particular Mr. Paxman excelled in his very realistic portrayal of an arch art cinema hater. So, as a service to the esteemed Mr. Paxman, here is a list of films he should steer well clear of; accidental exposure would risk extreme apoplexy and other symptoms of cultural and artistic myopia.
