RobertBoberts 62 Posted September 5, 2016 Bernardo Bertolucci directed it but my love for this movie mostly stems from the amazing cinematography by Vittorio Storaro, who also has a canon entry from his work on Apocalypse Now. Just do a google image search for the Conformist if you have not yet seen this movie. Every shot is so well composed and beautiful.

HoldenMartinson 221 Posted September 5, 2016 It's also streaming on Netflix, which feels random, but whatever. Anyway, yeah. It's a great film. Definitely check it out, if you haven't. Share this post Link to post
Original-User-00001 14 Posted September 9, 2016 YES ---- this is one of my favorite movies and I would love an excuse to re-watch it! Share this post Link to post
ForestTaylor 16 Posted September 10, 2016 Yes! One of my favorites as well. Other people have already mentioned the amazing cinematography by Vittorio Storaro, but I want to mention the story as well. I think it's one of the best films to explore the nature of fascism and other ideologies like that. By focusing on a man who just wants to belong to something, regardless of how twisted that ideology is, it really drives home the idea behind the banality of evil, so to speak. I think that makes the film worthy of discussion for the Canon. 1 Share this post Link to post
