Entertainment Reviews:
Like other Visconti melodramas, [Senso is] sumptuous in its Technicolor expressionism.

Gorgeously upholstered by flashing, decadent passions and over-the-top operatics.

...SENSO is a photographic dream....A contender for the most beautiful color film ever...
USA Today
An operatic fusion of romance and history....SENSO was the first Italian film shot in three-strip Technicolor, and the images' texture -- vibrantly colored, yet soft and almost smudgy -- complements the movie's delirious passions.
A.V. Club
Visconti observes it all in coolly elegant long takes....Theatrically dressed boudoirs highlight the deceptive lover's penchant for performance...
