Male bestial

This should be the best movie in Visconti. It is a male, animal movie.


The stories of the five brothers are staged one by one, reminiscent of a roulette with Western sceneries.
After the death of the father, the mother dragged the four brothers to Milan to find the boss. They got off the train, and they were covered in fresh and warm mud, little beasts going down the mountain.
The five brothers lived in the basement. It snowed heavily in the morning. They cheered that they had a job and could go to sweep the snow. The grappling fists made the viewers excited. The beast out of the cage.
In that winter, the unexpected arrival of a fashionable rebellious woman changed the fate of the family. The prostitute played by Anna Giraldo, although wild, has a very sad expression, and there seems to be a tear in her left eye. The second and third are fascinated by her.

The eldest is weak and traditional, and he has a normal family that has been obtained through hard work, which serves as a sanctuary for his brothers.
The second child is powerful, combative and violent. For that woman, he would steal. Although he stole confidently.
The three brothers all went to the boxing ring one after another, fighting like beasts, one more successful than one.
The third child and the second child loved the woman fell in love. In fact, neither he nor she was wrong. What was wrong was that the third child, after being beaten up by the second child, realized the depth of his brother's love, and mistakenly gave up the woman. The jealousy of my younger brother and the gradual aging in the boxing ring made this brutal beating so cruel, and the world became a hell.
The woman and the second child fell together. Mother also seemed to see the gate of hell.

The youngest played by Alain Delon, he seems to have to bear and save everything. He wants to be a saint, but he does not know that people must save themselves before they can save them.
The second child betrayed his body. When the brothers first came out, the leopard-like body in the bathhouse had long been coveted. After the drunkard, the jealous and mad cock murdered the woman again.
Visconti is unfair to this woman, but as a gay director, he can forgive him for shooting men so beautifully.

So far it has been all wrong, but the second child has to blindly tolerate.
The fourth child is on the stage, he is a symbol of reason and justice. Finally, the fourth and fifth had a conversation, which revealed their flaws and the cause of their tragedy. The fourth child is so clear that he is reality.
The fifth is the future. None of his brothers can go back. But he will return to his homeland alone.

    Rocco is a selfish saint. His love and forgiveness are all poured into his brother Simone, who is like a bastard. He is very stingy with the rest, including his so-called lover Nadia. His gaze is always looking at the past, looking at his hometown that has long been over-beautified in his mind. Vincenzo is the elder brother who has been wandering away from the original family early. After adulthood, Ciro seems to have truly become a pragmatic and rational person who still has the courage to take on family responsibilities. The ending scene of the film is frozen in the back of Luca who has gone away but merged into city life. There is probably only a misty symbol left in the hometown for the younger generation. But as Ciro said-where can you go back? The homeland will no longer be the homeland it once was.

    Realism is fierce. The title is a mess. The old man in the village house in the city taught him that if he was kicked out by the landlord, he could find someone of the same kind for free, which may be the meaning of communism. The whole family is excited to see Snow. Simon is stealing a brooch from the lady of the tailor's shop to give to Nadia. Rocco only met Nadia when he returned from the army. The long shot of the brothers turning their eyes against each other is simply too beautiful. The oblique angle of the dialogue between the men and women on the top of the Milan church was amazing. The relationship between several brothers, love and life, the correspondence between mother and family, society and men and women, is a simple and heavy masterpiece. The taste is long. 2:15 In the broker's room, the TV actually played Raphael's St. George's Slaying the Dragon, The Knight's Dream, Titiana Dae (the one in the Hermitage), (), Giorgione's Tempest, () . In order to save his brother, Rocco gave up his life for the first time in the line of boxing; the second time he gave up on women; the third time he completely gave up his life and body, and signed a 10-year contract. In the final section, one side is Simon and Nadia's entanglement and murder, and the other side is Roco punching. The table mother said five sons were like five fingers.

    Rocco Parondi: Winning came easy, Ciro, because I wasn't fighting him, I was fighting someone who aroused hatred in me, this hatred that's been lurking inside without my knowing. It's a bad feeling. You can't imagine how bad.

    Ciro Parondi: How's that possible, Rocco? There's nothing bad in you. Come on, Rocco, cheer up! You're a champ. A real champion!

  • Ciro Parondi: Rest now. We'll settle everything tomorrow.

    Rosaria Parondi: Tomorrow? Tomorrow? There is no tomorrow.
