The second film by an important director whose work deserves to be better known<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An unforgiving portrait of the rampant selfishness in Italy during the economic boom <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Franco Brusati, primarily remembered for the pungent Pane e cioccolata<\/em> with Nino Manfredi, was a highly-cultured director who pulled no punches. His second film, Il disordine<\/em>, plunges deep into the Italian economic miracle (and where better for it to be set than Milan), with a lucid analysis of its destructive effects. As noted by Gian Luigi Rondi: “The film violently depicts certain aspects of contemporary living, and in so doing traces a hallucinatory and desolate portrait of men and women who think only of themselves.” Brusati is an important director whose work deserves to be brought to a broader audience, and this film simply reiterates that fact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After arriving in Milan in search of work, Mario tries to climb the social ladder by frequenting the world of high-class business magnates and society snobs. He finds himself trapped inside a vortex of selfishness and frustration from which he will find it difficult to escape. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10567,"template":"","project-category":[33],"project-genre":[37],"class_list":["post-10581","projects","type-projects","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project-category-cinema-en","project-genre-drama"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
