Antonioni turns a glossy romantic melodrama of modern prosperity inside out to reveal the essence of modernity itself.

New Yorker
Redeemed by Antonioni's talent for episodes: the dismal picnic, the row in the restaurant, redecorating the apartment; and by his clever cutting and photography for character.

Esquire Magazine
A very minor early work from Michelangelo Antonioni.

Combustible Celluloid
Rating: 5/5 --
The expressive elegance of Antonioni's camera movements -- the way he glides around a scene, composing and recomposing the human figures within it to suggest psychological patterns and unacknowledged erotic connections -- still has the power to amaze.
New York Times
Rating: 4/5 --
Long before the he put Monica Vitti through the existentialist-ennui wringer, Michelangelo Antonioni gave the world this muted melodrama about urban females dealing with boorish men, banal modern life and the occasional suicide attempt.

Time Out
Rating: 4/4 --
An Antonioni film will frequently pose a riddle, and then never answer it; here the mystery of why Rosetta tries to kill herself becomes a pretense for the rest of the film.

Product Description:
An early drama from director Antonioni (BLOW UP), LE AMICHE is an allegory about the changing roles of women in society. Clelia (Rossi-Drago) is a beautiful young woman who works in the fashion industry, where she discovers a world of shallow people with put-on attitudes and ideas. The only solace she is able to find in this cruel and phony world is in the companionship of young architect Carlo.
