L'Eclisse (1962)

Antonioni, Michelangelo (29 September, 1912- ), Italian avant-garde motion-picture director and screenwriter, whose films are known for their haunting images of human isolation. Born in Ferrara, Antonioni entered the film industry in 1942 as a screenwriter and later became an assistant director. Antonioni's first feature film was Story of a Love (1950). Antonioni's best-known films are his trilogy The Adventure (1960), Night (1961), and Eclipse (1962); Red Desert (1964), his first colour film; Blowup (1966), his first English-language film; Zabriskie Point (1970); and The Passenger (1975). Later he directed Identification of a Woman (1982) and Beyond the Clouds (1995). Antonioni is known for a unique cinematographic style that employs lengthy tracking shots of human figures against a barren natural landscape or a scene of urban sterility. Antonioni wrote or cowrote the screenplays of most of his films. In 1994 he received a special Academy Award for his achievement in film.
