Review: Monica Vitti's Vittoria book-ends L'Eclisse in seemingly polar romantic states. She appears not to have fallen in love with him, instead she just sees it as a thing to do, perhaps as an escape. [6], It is today considered one of Antonioni's more important works. We would also do well to remember that L’Avventura was the first installment in a trilogy on “modernity and its discontents”. What Antonioni did best was probe towards previously impenetrable depths in his films.

It was incredible and I think also that it was an incredible film. Vittoria arrives at the Stock Exchange and learns that her mother lost about 10 million lire. She makes it clear to her best friend Claudia (Monica Vitti) that all is not right between them. Deciding not to go with her, Piero drives to Vittoria's apartment and stands outside her window. The conversation turns sour as Marta, a colonialist, worries about "monkeys" arming themselves and threatening the minority whites. L'Eclisse (English: "The Eclipse") is a 1962 Italian drama film  written and directed by Michelangelo Antonioni  and starring Alain Delon  and Monica Vitti. This psychologically acute, visually striking modernist work was director Michelangelo Antonioni’s follow-up to the epochal L’avventura. La notte.
