The Machine that Kills Bad People
194552. Roberto Rossellini. Screenplay by Rossellini, Sergio Amidei, et al. With Gennaro Pisano, Giovanni Amato, and the people of Amalfi. A photographer in Amalfi discovers his camera can petrify his subjects. "Perhaps my most original film" (Rossellini). Peter Brunette, author of Roberto Rossellini (1966) finds this comedy "particularly interesting because it stands the conventional view of Rossellini as an ultra-realist on its head." In Italian, English subtitles. 83 min.
