If you loved L'Eclisse, try these.

Red Desert poster 01

Movie / 1964 / Drama

Red Desert

Why this pick

Antonioni again turns modern architecture and industrial space into an emotional landscape, following a woman whose isolation is rendered through patient silences, uneasy encounters, and rigorously composed color.

La Notte poster 02

Movie / 1961 / Drama

La Notte

Why this pick

Its all-night drift through Milan shares L'Eclisse's cool precision and attention to intimacy failing in real time, with estrangement conveyed through rooms, pauses, and glances rather than dramatic explanation.

The Passenger poster 03

Movie / 1975 / Drama / Thriller

The Passenger

Why this pick

A more elusive Antonioni journey, but with the same fascination for emotional vacancy, dislocated identity, and environments that seem to quietly overtake the people moving through them.

Celine and Julie Go Boating poster 04

Movie / 1974 / Drama / Comedy / Fantasy

Celine and Julie Go Boating

Why this pick

For the pleasure of watching women wander, observe, and form a charged, ambiguous connection: Rivette is more playful than Antonioni, yet equally patient about time, space, and uncertain feeling.

Three Colours: Red poster 05

Movie / 1994 / Drama

Three Colours: Red

Why this pick

Its immaculate urban compositions and restrained performances create an Antonioni-like sense of chance and distance, while a tentative bond develops through observation rather than conventional romantic momentum.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

On a Monday of July 1961, at dawn, Vittoria (Monica Vitti), a young literary translator, breaks off her relationship with Riccardo (Francisco Rabal) in his apartment in the EUR, Rome residential district of Rome, following a long night of conversation. Riccardo tries to persuade her to stay, but she tells him she no longer loves him and leaves. As she walks the deserted early-morning streets past the EUR water tower, Riccardo catches up and walks with her through a wooded area to her apartment building, where they say their final goodbyes.
