Michelangelo Antonioni: Ambiguity in the Modernist Cinema

Zusatztext

Most of the scholarly literature on the cinema of Michelangelo Antonioni focuses on the director's distinctive film style. Many studies mention his relationship to various modern art movements and the thematic ambiguity of his work, but few position Antonioni's later films in their modernist context and within the contemporary phenomenon of ambiguity. This study attempts to situate Antonioni within the larger, contextualizing discourse of modernism and its "problematics of language".
