Book Overview
In 1960 two Italian films achieved international acclaim and box office success. These films were frequently compared because of the themes and techniques they had in common, among them their defiance of conventional structure and their indictment of postwar Italy's miraculous economic recovery, which they exposed as empty materialism. The similarities between the two films--Federico Fellini's La dolce vita and Michelangelo Antonioni's L'avventura--are not, however, as great as their differences.The newly translated continuity script is more accurate and complete than any previously published for this film. This volume contains, in addition to Chatman's introduction, a biographical sketch by Guido Fink, a production history of the film, the director's comments on the film, reviews and commentaries (including an exchange between Roland Barthes and Antonioni), and a filmography and bibliography.
