    L'Eclisse

    ★★

    Having now completed Antonioni’s trilogy, I guess I can say he’s not really my cup of tea so far (although I did enjoy La Notte).

    Perhaps it’s me, and maybe I will understand and appreciate these films at a later stage of my life, but nothing happens for the majority of the movie. The parts in the stock market are unnecessarily long and they really don’t add much to the film other than runtime.

    I can’t empathise with the characters…

    La Notte

    ★★★★

    This was my first time watching a film by Antonioni, and I’m still discovering films from the 50s and 60s, so I have to be honest and say that I did struggle a bit to get through it at first, despite it looking stunning.

    But, but, but…the last scene and Lidia’s monologue really did it for me and made me love the film.
