Review
Luchino Visconti's masterpiece of a society in transition follows the declining fortunes of the family of Prince Salina, a wealthy Sicilian landowner, during the war of unification in the 1860s. Superbly photographed, evocatively scored and wonderfully performed, the new transfer, with restored sound and picture, allows 'The Leopard' to be experienced in all its original, uncut glory. A true classic.
