Salvatore Giuliano. 1961. Italy. Directed by Francesco Rosi. In Italian; English subtitles. 123 min.

With Frank Wolff, Salvo Randone, Federico Zard, Pietro Camerata. Rosi’s docudrama on the exploits of a Sicilian bandit, filmed spectacularly on location, provides a new direction for Neorealism, the movement essentially founded by Rosi’s mentor, Luchino Visconti. Beautifully photographed in stark black and white by Gianni Di Venanzo, the film is the antithesis of Visconti’s soon-to-be-released ravishing color epic of Sicilian nobility, The Leopard (which we will be screening in November).

This film accompanies An Auteurist History of Film Reprise, Part 2.
