The TVI Take
A fascist agent is sent to assassinate his former professor in Paris. Bernardo Bertolucci's film is formally extraordinary — Vittorio Storaro's cinematography established his reputation.
Educational about Italian fascism and the psychology of conformism. The formal beauty is inseparable from its moral argument.
