Larry Karaszewski Presents: 50th Anniversary! ROCCO AND HIS BROTHERS, 1960, Sony Repertory, 180 min. In director Luchino Visconti's epic and incredibly moving family tragedy, the aging widow Rosario moves to Milan with her four sons. When one of the sons, Simone (Renato Salvatori) meets the smoldering prostitute Nadia, the two have a tumultuous affair. Then Simone's brother Rocco (the iconic Alain Delon) returns home from military service, and things fall dangerously apart: adultery, betrayal and murder send the family spiraling into a bitter vendetta. One of screenwriter Suso Cecchi d'Amico finest works. In Italian with English subtitles. Introduction by Larry Karaszewski.
