The Subversives (Tavianis, 1967): BFI Southbank, NFT2, 6.20pm


This film is part of the Taviani Brothers season and also screens on March 5th. Full details here.

BFI introduction:
This early drama interweaves the stories of four men with complex personal lives (one of whom is a film director) and political affiliations, linked by their presence at a – real-life – public figure’s funeral. The Tavianis’ breakthrough film demonstrates their belief in the power of cinema and includes a nod to Jean-Luc Godard’s then recent Pierrot le Fou.

Here (and above) is the trailer.
