The late great Italian film director Michelangelo Antonioni, perhaps most famous in the English world for Blowup (1966), Zabriskie Point (1970), and The Passenger (1975), created his most arresting work, the so-called "trilogy on modernity and it's discontents" in the early 1960s. Comprised of 1960's L'Avventura, 1961's La Notte, and 1962's L'Eclisse, this is not a narrative trilogy, but instead a stylistic one. With music from the brilliant composers Giorgio Gaslini, and Giovanni Fusco this is an essential collection and a beautiful look into the sonic world of Antonioni's most brilliant work.
