    1) It was directed by Luchino Visconti. 2) The handsome Farley Granger. 3) The exquisite set design, and costumes.

    1) Has changed the course of Italian cinema 2) It is one of the best exemple of the fusion between cinema, visual arts, painting and music. 3) It is melodrama at its best

    I like the backdrop of Risorgimento Italy and the portrayal of two characters played by Alida Valli and the recently deceased Farley Granger.

    1. Alida Valli's character is possessed, mad, jealous and horny, the perfect recipe for disaster. 2. Visconti's use of colour is seductive. That scene in the hayloft is luminous. 3. Farley Granger looks like ice cream. Who wouldn't be driven mad by him?

    I'm not a great fan of The Leopard...it simply moves far too slow; but this, Senso, looks more melodramatic- Sirkian by way of the Archers.
