4 stars out of 4 -- [The film] remains startling not only for its portrayal of perverse familial dysfunction, but also for its assured, original style and convention-defying structure.
Premiere
Jun 1, 2006
Still a shocking, forceful film, and it seems every bit as alive today as it must have in 1965. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- Marco Bellochio's debut feature may have shed some of its shock value over the years, but it remains an audacious study of family dysfunction at its most extreme. Full Review
Film Frenzy
Sep 22, 2019
A Freudian operating in a Marxist political context, Mr. Bellocchio uncovers the infantilism that continues to rule adult desires, creating a cinema that is at once gleefully anarchic and coldly analytic.
New York Times
Apr 25, 2006
Rating: 3/4 -- Shot impeccably by Alberto Marrama and dipped in hushed Ennio Morricone lullabies, the film's visual intensity presents the iconography of a world in transition. Full Review
Slant Magazine

Rating: 8/10 -- Comedy at its darkest in this transfixing black and white beauty from the golden days of Italian cinema. Full Review
It's Just Movies
Nov 18, 2018
Rating: A -- It somehow manages not to be a shocker, a clinical study or like an American TV soap opera despite its story line dipping into all those areas. Full Review

Product Description:

Innovative Italian director Marco Bellocchio's debut feature, which stars THE LEOPARD's Lou Castel, is a nuanced, intimate portrait of a dysfunctional family that immediately established him as a distinctive, thoughtful, and socially aware talent.
