Amour
1h 9m Drama 1948

Two women confront love, loss and belief in Rossellini’s intense dual portrait of devotion and delusion.

Rossellini’s L’Amore presents two powerful portraits of love in extremis. In The Human Voice, a woman unravels during a desperate final phone call to her lover. In The Miracle, a naïve villager believes herself divinely chosen. Together, these stark, intimate stories explore devotion, delusion and the fragile boundaries between faith and longing.

12 Questions with Dr. Alfio Leotta Associate Professor of Film at Victoria University.

RIALTO RECOMMENDS Raw and unforgettable, L’Amore showcases Rossellini at his most daring-two haunting studies of love pushed to its emotional and spiritual limits.
