a farewell: the magic comes alive

Each of Michelangelo Antonioni's films are special and inspiring in their own way, but there are moments that make a jaw drop. Here are some essential moments from the bold path Antonioni forged throughout his career:


"L'Eclisse"
1962
The final moments that shock and awe.


"Blow-Up"
1966
A wry meditation on capturing the artifice that acts as a metaphor for cinema.


"L'Avventura"
1960
Looking for something that's not there.

Other choice moments:
*Jeanne Moreau declining an invitation in the rain in "La Notte"
*Monica Vitti surrounded by a crowd of horndogs in "L'Avventura"
*The devastating suicide in "Il Grido"
