Prima della rivoluzione (Before the Revolution)
1964. Italy. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. With Adriana Asti, Francesco Barilli, Allen Midgette. Before the Revolution is a tale of disenchanted youth rebelling against Genovese society before settling down to join it. Featuring glorious black-and-white cinematography by Carlo di Palma, the film follows the contrasting lives of two youths: Agostino, underprivileged, without any political alliances, and raging against inequity and boredom; and Fabrizio, born into the bourgeoisie but flirting with communism and intellectualism (though not as ardently as he pursues his unapologetically individualistic aunt from the big city of Milan). Stylistically in thrall to the French New Wave, the film even incorporates an homage to Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina. In Italian; English subtitles. 112 min.

<i>The Dreamers.</i> France/Great Britain/Italy. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci
The Dreamers
2003. France/Great Britain/Italy. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. With Michael Pitt, Eva Green, Louis Garrel. Set in Paris in the spring of 1968—the defining moment of Bertolucci’s generation—The Dreamers begins with the firing of the beloved director of Paris’s Cinémathèque Française, and the public uproar that follows. An ode to transgression in cinema, sex, and politics, the film is divided between the insular, claustrophobic world of three attractive young protagonists—who, cloistered inside a huge bourgeois apartment and naked for much of the film, engage in escalating sexual exploration—and masterfully choreographed crowd scenes of demonstrators squaring off with police outside. Bertolucci’s blending of history and fiction mirrors the life-imitating-film games played by his cinema-obsessed protagonists. In English, French; English subtitles. 115 min.

Stealing Beauty
1996. Italy/France/Great Britain. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. With Liv Tyler, Sinéad Cusack, Jeremy Irons. When American teenager Lucy (Tyler) arrives at the sprawling Tuscan farmhouse where her mother once lived, she seduces everyone around her with her unspoiled beauty and grace. Her secret goals, meanwhile, are to lose her virginity and to find her real father among a tight-knit group of friends who live a comfortable, leisurely communal life filled with art, food, and gossip. Bertolucci’s return to Italy—and to filmmaking on a more intimate scale—is suffused with a genuine feel for the landscape and a romantic belief that youthful innocence and love will triumph over disillusionment and cynicism. 118 min.
