From the unbridled sensuality of silent Italian films, to the neorealist classic Bitter Rice, to the astonishing imagination of Fellini and the more cerebral and fascinating movies of Antonioni, Italy has a filmic legacy unlike that of any other nation.
This greatly expanded edition of Italian Cinema explores the new generation of Italian film and TV successes as well as important directors and movements of the past, with every kind of film examined.
