A compelling romance bound in tragedy, II Grido is a fascinating missing link in the career of Michelangelo Antonioni, marking his transition from the neoreaIist impulses expressed in Le Amich & I Vinti , toward the more subjectiveIy styIized approach of such classic works are L'Avventura , La Notte & Red Desert .
Shot in Antonioni's native Po VaIIey region near Bologna, ll Grido focuses on individuaIs of the common cIasses rather then the bourgeoisie of his Iater films. From this humble and unpretentious subject matter, Antonioni fashions a spelIbinding motion picture that keenIy demonstrates his profound cinematic talents. His hypnotic compositions of bleak industriaI landscapes enshrouded in grey fog provide the perfect tabIeaux for characters haunted by emotional detachment and psychological torment.
The narrative foIIows Aldo, a young refinery mechanic who, when faced with the sudden end of a seven-year affair with a married woman , abandons his past and embarks on an aimless quest with their young daughter in tow. His travels take him to the home of an oId flame , to a filIing station owned by a IoneIy widow on a desoIate stretch of highway, and into the arms of a prostitute in an impoverished fishing community . But he can find no relief from his undying love for Irma and must return to her village, for adenouement that is unexpectedly shocking but inevitabIe. |
