	t architects of modern European cinema\,\nhad little interest in making fi
	lms behave properly. After beginning in the\norbit of Italian neorealism\,
	 he gradually turned his attention away from social\nreality and towards t
	he private landscapes of disconnection\, desire and boredom.\nL’Avventura 
	(1960) is the film where that language fully crystallises\; the first\npar
	t of the loose trilogy completed by La notte and L’eclisse.\n\nIt begins w
	ith a disappearance and then\, rather perversely\, loses interest in\nsolv
	ing it. Anna vanishes from a small island\; her friends search for her\, b
	ut\nthe real subject gradually becomes the strange emotional vacuum her ab
	sence\nexposes.\n\nAntonioni’s revolution is almost embarrassingly simple:
	 he lets nothing happen\nfor long enough that we are forced to notice ever
	ything else. Architecture\,\nbodies\, silences\, the geometry of a room- a
	ll become more expressive than\ndialogue. Monica Vitti and Gabriele Ferzet
	ti move through the film like people\ntrying to remember what desire is su
	pposed to feel like.\n\nIt’s often called a film about alienation\, which 
	is true but not quite\nsufficient. L’Avventura is less interested in lonel
	iness than in the peculiar\nboredom of people who can no longer tell what 
	they want. The missing woman\nbecomes almost incidental. What disappears i
	nstead is certainty about love\,\nmorality\, narrative- even cinema itself
	.\n\nNo wonder the film caused such a stir at Cannes in 1960\, where it re
	ceived the\nJury Prize. Antonioni had made a mystery in which the mystery 
	itself slowly\nbecomes irrelevant. And he is perfectly happy to leave the 
	hole open.\n\nThis film is chosen by Andreas\n[https://www.supermercator.n
