There are enough intentional or unintentional depictions of the interior and exterior of the building in this film to impress me, such as the street lights that appear many times, the close-up of the corners of the building, and the simple and beautiful interior wallpapers. uniquely sensitive. From beginning to end, there are few close-ups of people's faces, and most of them are medium shots. They deliberately express the spatial relationship between people and people and between people and scenery. Almost every shot gives the surrounding environment an opportunity to 'express itself', as if this is not just a film about human relationships, the surrounding buildings, cars, street lights, trees, signal towers. . . Wait, the shots given by Antonioni again and again seem to be part of the story, and there are more empty shots in the back of the film. In fact, this film is not intended to tell any complicated stories. My understanding is to express infinite space. Time and increasingly complex interpersonal relationships are slowly consuming people.

    The empty scene at the end left me stunned and sluggish in front of the screen. Except for the beautiful hero and heroine, and the sadness immersed in the film, I can't comment on the rest. Master, what do you want to say, I will try my best to listen.

    Black and white classic. The little fresh meat of Alain Delon's era! I understand now why someone likes it so much (his movie poster).

L'Eclisse quotes

  • Vittoria: We spent the whole night talking things over. And for what? I'm so tired and depressed. Disgusted and confused. What can I say? There are times when holding a needle and thread, or a book, or a man - it's all the same.

  • Anita: Don't the hippopatami bother you?
