Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Insight

Released during Italy's 1970s 'cinema of crisis,' the film mirrors a nation questioning its own postwar identity through one man's dissolution.

Trivia

Alain Cuny improvised several monologues after Del Monte locked the crew out of the room; the raw uncertainty is genuine.
