Bertolucci’s “Il Conformista”

art, fashion work, inspiration, movies | May 14th, 2009

Il Conformista, by Bernardo Bertolucci, is one of the most amazingly shot films I’ve ever seen.

Ever.

Period.

I see in it everything from Lynch’s central oeuvre to Missoni’s FW09 campaign.

  1. Wow, good call on the Missoni – I love that campaign even more now that I know what an impressive execution of the inspiration it is.
