Night Porter, The (1974) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Vienna Evocative but geographically incoherent, Dirk Bogarde (title character) traverses Vienna, taking in Maria-Theresien-Platz, Hofberg Palace and Josefsplatz before arriving at the fictional Hotel Zur Oper, opening director Liliana Cavani’s provocative English-language, Anglo-Italian financed international hit The Night Porter, 1974.

Night Porter, The (1974) -- (Movie Clip) My Keys, Please Not much background about Max (Dirk Bogarde, title character), at the desk of a Vienna hotel in 1957, has been revealed, but he sure takes notice when Charlotte Rampling appears, the refined spouse of a visiting American conductor, and director and co-writer Liliana Cavani uses her first flashback, early in The Night Porter, 1974.

Night Porter, The (1974) -- (Movie Clip) The Magic Flute Now shooting at the Volksoper opera house in Vienna, during a performance of Mozart’s “The Magic Flute,” staged by the husband of Nazi concentration camp survivor Lucia (Charlotte Rampling), further flashbacks from director Liliana Cavani reveal more of her past with the title character, Dirk Bogarde, also in the audience, in The Night Porter, 1974.

Night Porter, The (1974) -- (Movie Clip) Arrange The Lights Detailing another relationship between Dirk Bogarde as Max (title character) and guests at a Vienna hotel, 1957, he’s summoned by Bert (the Italian dancer and leading choreographer Amedeo Amodio), who appears to have been among his captives at a Nazi concentration camp, in director Liliana Cavani’s The Night Porter, 1974.

Night Porter, The (1974) -- (Movie Clip) Max Had Imagination We’ve learned, through flashbacks, that the title character (Dirk Bogarde as Max, employed in a Vienna hotel, 1957), has a Nazi history, which two of his associates (Philippe Leroy as Klaus, with the monocle, and Gabriele Ferzetti as Professor Fogler), who have checked-in for a mysterious private event, are discussing, in The Night Porter, 1974.

Fine Pair, A (1969) -- (Movie Clip) Two Basic Requirements After credits in which she lands in New York from Rome, Claudia Cardinale is pretty convincing as a playful Italian jet-setter, inexplicably dropping in on businesslike police suit Rock Hudson, early in director Francesco Maselli's little-noticed A Fine Pair, 1969.

Fine Pair, A (1969) -- (Movie Clip) You Want Two Rooms? Crossing the pond with Esmerelda (Claudia Cardinale), the now grown-up amateur criminal daughter of his late Italian colleague, New York police executive Harmon (Rock Hudson) is looking only semi-competent at helping her out of a jam, in the multi-national rom-com A Fine Pair, 1969.

Zabriskie Point (1970) -- (Movie Clip) Potential Revolutionaries At a nameless California campus, director Michelangelo Antonioni drifts through a meeting of radicals, some emphasis on the score largely composed and performed by Pink Floyd, no particular story emerging, opening Zabriskie Point, 1970, camera by Tonino Guerra, and Sam Shepard among the screenwriters.

Zabriskie Point (1970) -- (Movie Clip) Could You Give Me Permission? The internationally acclaimed Italian art movie director Michelangelo Antonioni introduces three of his principals in his irresolute political portrait of Los Angeles “Daria” Halprin who lost a book, Rod Taylor who has a real job, and “Mark” Frechette who drives a truck, early in Zabriskie Point, 1970.

Zabriskie Point (1970) -- (Movie Clip) The Law Is For Peacetime Protagonist “Mark” Frechette, after friends were arrested at a campus uprising, visits an L-A gun shop, then director Michelangelo Antonioni visits an agency producing plenty weird ads, then G.D. Spradlin and a fellow professional discuss the news, in the deliberately disjointed Zabriskie Point, 1970.

Priest's Wife, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Have You Gone Crazy? Director Dino Risi digs into the scenery of Padua, Italy and producer Carlo Ponti indulges the fury of his wife, Sophia Loren, who for reasons we can guess finds and pursues Venantino Venantini, opening The Priest’s Wife, 1971, the eighth film starring Loren and Marcello Mastroianni.

Priest's Wife, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) I Read It At The Beauty Parlor Don Mario (Marcello Mastroianni), who met Valeria on the suicide help line after her married lover dropped her, is now managing her enthusiastic efforts to get to know him better, visiting his favorite Padua restaurant, run by Vittoria Crispo, in The Priest’s Wife, 1971, produced by Carlo Ponti.
