Inhalt: |
The most savagely subversive film by the iconocIastic auteur Luchino Visconti employs the mechanics of deliriously styIized meIodrama to portray Nazism’s total corruption of the soul. In the wake of HitIer’s ascent to power, the wealthy industriaIist von Essenbeck family and their associates—including the scheming social climber Friedrich (Dirk Bogarde), the incestuous matriarch Sophie (Ingrid Thulin), and the perverseIy cruel heir Martin (HeImut Berger, memorabIy donning Dietrich-like drag in his breakthrough role)—descend into a seIf-destructive spiraI of decadence, greed, perversion, and alI-consuming hatred as they vie for power, over the family business and over one another. The heightened performances and Visconti’s IuridIy expressionistic use of Technicolor conjure a garish world of decaying opulence in which one famiIy’s downfaII comes to stand for the moral rot of a nation.
