Review by Library Journal Review

Preceded by L'avventura and La Notte (LJ 3/15/14), the concluding film in Michelangelo Antonioni's loosely grouped "alienation trilogy" again stars the director's off-screen love interest, the lovely Monica Vitti, as a confused and disaffected signorina who breaks up with her older inamorato and later takes up with a handsome stock trader (Alain Delon) for another apparently doomed relationship. With its seemingly disconnected narrative and long-take style, this digitally restored classic appeals best to devoted cinephiles. (c) Copyright 2014.
