520 _aFrom Rai Cinema release case cover: È la storia di cinque fratelli lucani immigrati a Milano con la madre. Rocco, il più buono, cerca di tenere unita la famiglia accettando perfino di intraprendere l'odiata carriera di pugile, ma tutto è inutile: Simone prende una brutta strada e finisce per ammazzare una povera prostituta, sua ex amante, che ora gli preferisce Rocco; Luca, che è ancora un bambino, rimane in casa con la madre; Vincenzo rinnega la sua origine contadina diventando un piccolo borghese; Ciro fa l'operaio. From Eureka! release case cover: From Luchino Visconti – the master director of such classics as "La terra trema", "Bellissima", and "The Leopard" – comes this epic study of family, sex, and betrayal. Along side Fellini's "La dolce vita" and Antonioni's "L'avventura", Visconti's "Rocco and His Brothers" ushered Italian cinema into a new era, one unafraid to confront head-on the hypocrisies of the ruling class, the squalor in urban living, and the collision between generations. A tight-knit family moves from Italy's rural south to metropolitan Milan. The shock of the new is violent and immediate. A mother meddles. A whore beguiles. Brother faces brother. Blood-ties become undone. We pity beatific Rocco (played by the immortal Alain Delon in a role specially written for him) and Nadia the harlot (Annie Girardot, capricious and scintillating) – the modern condition has shattered their lives. "The Masters of Cinema Series" is proud to present one of Visconti's most revered films – winner of the FIRPESCI Prize and the Special Prize at Venice in 1960 – newly restored to its original form.
_bFrom IMDb: The widow Rosaria moves to Milano from Lucania with her 4 sons, one of whom is Rocco. The fifth son, Vincenzo, already lives in Milano. In the beginning, the family has a lot of problems, but everyone manages to find something to do. Simone is boxing, Rocco works in a dry cleaners, and Ciro studies. Simone meets Nadia, a prostitute, and they have a stormy affair. Then Rocco, after finishing his military service, begins a relationship with her. A bitter feud ensues between the two brothers, which will lead as far as murder...
