I vinti (The Vanquished)
July 19 at 4:30PM
East Building Concourse, Large Auditorium
Three morality tales Antonioni-style: shy Jean-Pierre Mocky flashes money to get accepted but finds more than he bargained for; eccentric poet Peter Reynolds stops at nothing to get his name in the news; while cigarette smuggler Franco Interlenghi meets with a different sort of trouble. Filmed in three countries, all of which imposed censorship hurdles, I vinti bears the Antonioni trademark—the meanings are in the details. (1952, 35 mm, Italian with subtitles, 110 minutes)
