Description:THE MOMENT OF TRUTH, from director Francesco Rosi (SALVATORE GIULIANO) is a visceral plunge into the life of a famous torero played by real-life bullfighting legend Miguel Mateo, known as Miguelin. Charting his rise and fall with a single-minded focus on the bloody business at hand, the film is at once gritty and operatic, placing the viewer right in the thick of the rings action, as close to death as possible. Like all of the great Italian truth seekers films, this is a not just an electrifying drama but also a profound and moving inquiry into a violent world and perhaps the greatest bullfighting movie ever made.
The "Moment of Truth" DVD, released by the renowned Criterion Collection, brings to life Francesco Rosi's powerful 1965 film about the world of bullfighting in Spain. This gripping drama follows Miguel Romero, a young man from rural poverty who seeks fame and fortune as a matador in Barcelona.
