| Summary, etc |
[NoShame Films release]<br/>From case cover:<br/>Groundlessly jealous of his wife's romanitc past, Enrico Fontana hires a private detective to finally determine whether she is faithful or not. Ironically, his suspicious attitude unconciously brings his wife Paola (Lucia Bosé) together with Gudio (Massimo Girotti), a man with whom she had once been in love. Paola and Guido's past was clouded in tragedy. Guido had been involved with Paola's close female friend's death. Their passion rekindled once again, the lovers even get to the point where they are thinking about murdering Enrico...<br/>After making highly regarded documentaries, STORY OF A LOVE AFFAIR was Michelangelo Antonioni's first feature length dramatic film. It also signaled a significant change in the direction of post-war neo-realism. Antonioni, the future director of L'AVVENTURA, L'ECLISSE, BLOW-UP, and ZABRISKIE POINT had already begun to set down the fundamentals of his future films, exploring the uneasy emotions that lie between the gazes of his characters.<br/>Winner of the Italian Film Journalist's Silver Ribbon for Best Music and a Special Award to Michelangelo Antonioni, this masterpiece still excludes extraordinary and intensely innovative power.<br/>Renowned filmmaker Martin Scorsese has declared STORY OF A LOVE AFFAIR to be one of his all-time favorite and NoShame Films is proud to present it for the first time ever on DVD in America, loaded with exclusive extra materials and remastered from the newly restored 35mm film elements.<br/>______<br/><br/>[Lorber Films release]<br/>From case cover:<br/>"Story of a Love Affair" (1950) is the legendary Michelangelo Antonioni's debut feature, a powerful statement on the delusions and violence sparked by a passionate love. This deeply tragic romance already exhibits the astonishing formal control and penetrating insights into the human condition that would later make him famous in films like "Il Grido", "L'Avventura", and "Blow-Up".<br/>A wealthy industrialist becomes curious about his trophy wife Paola's (Lucia Bosé) past, and hires a private investigator. The detective discovers that she had fallen desperately in love with the handsome Guido (Massimo Girotti) as a young girl, and may have participated in a crime to win his hand. After years apart, Paola and Guido reunite to deflect the investigation, and rekindle their attraction in the process. As events spiral out of their control, a murder may blaze their only path to freedom.<br/>One of the great first features in movie history, "Story of a Love Affair" effortlessly weaves lust, class and the reprecussions of violence into a crime movie melodrama you will not soon forget.<br/><br/>From IMDb:<br/>Paola (Lucia Bose) is the beautiful and jealously-guarded younger wife of a shady factory owner, Enrico Fontana (Ferdinando Sarmi). In order to investigate her romantic history he hires a private detective, which ironically brings Paola back into contact with former lover Guido (Massimo Girotti), with whom she resurrects a lost passion. Dogged by the suspicions of their respective mates, they are drawn closer to each other in the face of adversity, and begin to plot Enrico's demise. But when the challenge of being together falls away, will the passion start to wane? A masterpiece of intensity and finely-wrought emotion. |
