      "The Panther": An Epic Dedicated to the Nobles

      This may be the first time I've seen a fully live-action film. Visconti's use of long and short shots is so perfect! The director asked the actors to have a level of performance, self-liberation, and venting, which is quite interesting because, overall, the film does not pay attention to the acting skills of most of the characters. Figure 1 should be the most recent shot in the entire film because its plot development does not require too many emotional expressions of individual...

      The few idealized nobility in Movie The Leopard

      The movie concretized the dance scene that I can only see in the novel. The ladies with fans and pouches on their wrists are so intimate. So many people!

      dusty gem

      If you leave the plot, you can only comment from the visual point of view. Looking at the appearance of the protagonist Prince Salina is enough to lick the screen. The temperament precipitated by the years is really not something that can be described by a crude and vulgar "handsome". The heroine Angelica was as beautiful as a goddess the moment she left the country. Look at the various backgrounds, the grand castles, the grandeur of the buildings, and the silk tutu skirts on the ladies at the...

      Minority Grief

      There are very few leopards. Most of the world is a coyote and a jackal. The leopard is a small minority of big animals, and its beauty is a bit desolate. This seems to be an elegy of the old times, but the wonderful thing is that it is not a work that glorifies the layers of the old times.

      The soft-left stance of the film is expressed through Prince Salina: I support the new force of historical change in my heart, but I cannot invest in it to add fuel to it, because I still belong to...

      Noble

      coyote, jackal, leopard, lion

      It is said that aristocratic temperament takes at least three generations to develop. Gradually, I deeply agree with

      Unlike the literati temperament, the literati only needs to be nurtured and cultivated by books (humanistic thoughts), and he can cultivate the literati...

      Lampedusa perfectly presents the history of the decline and fall of the Catholic aristocracy in a novel style, and Visconti endows it with a solemn image. This is not so much a movie as it is civilization...

      When the nobles photograph the royal family, they cherish each other in loneliness; the sense of flowing oil paintings is luxurious and generous; the tigers and leopards are replaced by wolves, and the classes must be replaced; Alain Delon is really a creampie (jealous and cute), Burt Lancaster has a rough and masculine line; the heroine Claudia only played in the opening hour, and the second half of the social dance was also filmed for an hour. Does the director dare to make it; he still loves...

      History always repeats itself in a loop, because human beings keep repeating the same mistakes. Human nature always sinks into the despicable, so people in their sleep are all confused ghosts who don't want to be awakened. Pride and extravagance are the life passions of the powerful, and sensuality is the life creed of those with vested interests. Sleeping in the glory of the past is very happy for the sleeper, but it is endless sadness in the eyes of the dreamer. Visconti is the recorder of...

      The Sicilian version of "Dream of Red Mansions", an elegy for the age of Jian Bao. It turned out that from feudalism to republic, only one waltz was needed. Visconti really burns...

    Movie plot

    Prince Don Fabrizio Salina ( Burt Lancaster ) heard that Garibaldi’s army had landed in Sicily. The Prince regarded this incident as a clear threat to his current social status, and his nephew Child Don Credi Falconeri ( Alain Delon ), an opportunist, relies on the incident to become an officer under Garibaldi's banner and returns to his hometown as a war hero. Don Reddy began with the new mayor Calogero Sedara Don ( Paolo Stoppa...

    "IL Gattopardo" is a superb (Italian) historical mural ( reviewed by film critic Rondolini )   ; it guides a journey back to the time and space of the Sicilian dynasty at the end of the 19th century; the authentic texture of the fabrics of the props and the antique furniture The rusty stains create an immersive effect, allowing the audience to smell the history of the 20th century ( Sina.com )   .

    Movie quotes

    • Princess Maria Stella Salina: I never could endure that fop! You lost your head over him! And he has the impertinence to ask you, his uncle, father of the girl he has deceived, to carry his proposal to that rascal, the father of that slut! You mustn't do it!

      Prince Don Fabrizio Salina: Enough! You don't know what you're saying. Angelica is not a slut. She may become one, but for now she's a girl like any other, prettier than others, who wants to make a good marriage.

    • Princess Maria Stella Salina: It's outrageous! And I'd so hoped he would marry Concetta! He's a traitor, like all liberals of his kind! First he betrays his king, and now us. He, with that lying face of his, those honeyed words and poisoned actions! That's what happens when one lets people into one's home who aren't of our own blood.

    • Prince Don Fabrizio Salina: You've mentioned everything - savage mothers, filthy grandfathers - but not what interests me: Miss Angelica.

      Don Francisco Ciccio Tumeo: There's nothing to say. She speaks for herself. She has her mother's beauty without her grandfather's stink.
