About this movie

Luchino Visconti ("The Damned," "Death in Venice") directed this absorbing epic starring film legend Alain Delon ("Honor Among Thieves") as an idealistic and poor Italian farm boy who moves with his mother and three brothers to Milan in search of a better life - but the reality of that life that will drive the family apart with sweat, tears and blood. Famed director Visconti's powerful, emotional landscape is what makes this prime example of Italian neo-realism a modern classic, says Premiere Magazine. Winner of the Venice Film Festival and a staggering 26 other international film awards. (In Italian with English subtitles)
