Rating: B -- Fortunately, relief for the navel-gazing conversations comes in the actual film craft -- photography, production design, music, control of pace and tone -- which reveals Antonioni's blossoming mastery.

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. Full Review

A very minor early work from Michelangelo Antonioni. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- A beach scene, the camera constantly weaving and circling as gossip spreads and alliances are formed and broken, is virtuoso stuff.

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. Full Review

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

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.
