The Innocent (1976)
R 11 Jan 1979 • Drama, Romance • 1h 52m
Luchino Visconti's last film, based on a novella by Gabrielle d'Annunzio, is a haunting account of aristocratic chauvinism and sexual double standards in turn-of-the-century Italy. Giannini is the psychotic husband whose lust cannot be satisfied; Antonelli is his sensitive, tormented wife; and O'Neil is his cunning, possessive mistress.
