The film is three hours long, all about a declining nobleman. The whole story is quiet in a declining tone, and a lot of space is described that has nothing to do with the central theme. For example, the space for describing the love of young people is too large. long.

What impresses me most is the last scene of the film, where Prince Salina walks into the long alleys of the city. Unlike his well-dressed appearance, the place he is in is a decayed ruin, or a slum. I feel the loneliness of the rise and fall of the aristocracy

The Leopard quotes

  • Don Francisco Ciccio Tumeo: But even in the best kept houses secrets come out. Servants talk.

  • 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.
