AMOR EN LA CIUDAD

Six separate episodes exploring themes of love, sex and romance in the Italian capital. A provincial dance hall. An investigative reporter posing as a husband-to-be. A young unwed mother. Girl-watching techniques of Italian men. A glimpse into prostitution.

Michelangelo Antonioni joined forces with six directors—including Fellini—for this amorous anthology film. Made while neorealism was on the wane, but before his ascension to cinema’s Valhalla with his modernist masterpieces, Love in the City is a fascinating testament to a master’s evolving style.
