Press Notes: Identification of a Woman
“The great Italian cine-maestro Michelangelo Antonioni’s 1982 film, Identification of a Woman, is an excellent continuation of his better-known work from the ’60s and ’70s,” writes DVD Talk’s Christopher McQuain in a review of Criterion’s new Blu-ray and DVD release. He is especially taken with the film’s look: “Working with the great cinematographer Carlo Di Palma, Antonioni creates some of the most evocative, enrapturing visuals of his career,” and considers it “a deeply felt, urgent, fully achieved work of art.” According to Turner Classic Movies’ Sean Axmaker, “There’s a sadness and sympathy in the masterfully directed Identification of a Woman, a film filled with mysteries that are never resolved and images that are simultaneously lonely and lovely.” And DVD Verdict’s Gordon Sullivan praises the film’s “sumptuous imagery and atmosphere.”
