Description:An elegy of exile and an epic immersion into the world of rural Italy during the Mussolini years, Francesco Rosi's sublime adaptation of the memoirs of the painter, physician, and political activist Carlo Levi brings a monument of twentieth-century autobiography to the screen with quiet grace and solemn beauty. Banished to a desolate southern town for his anti-Fascist views, the worldly Levi (Gian Maria Volonte) discovers an Italy he never knew existed, a place where ancient folkways and superstitions still hold sway and that gradually transforms his understanding of both himself and his country. Presented for the first time on home video in it's original full-length, four-part cut, Christ Stopped at Eboli ruminates profoundly on the political and philosophical rifts within Italian society between north and south, tradition and modernity, fascism and freedom and the essential humanity that transcends all.
"Christ Stopped at Eboli" (original title: "Cristo si è fermato a Eboli") is an acclaimed Italian drama film directed by Francesco Rosi, now available in stunning Blu-Ray format from the renowned Criterion Collection. Adapted from Carlo Levi?s memoir, the film explores his exile to a remote southern Italian village during Mussolini's fascist regime and offers a poignant meditation on isolation, poverty, and resilience. The Criterion Collection is celebrated for its meticulous restorations and insightful supplements that honor cinematic masterpieces worldwide. The cast features Gian Maria Volonté as Carlo Levi, whose powerful performances have graced classics like "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion" and "A Fistful of Dollars." Director Francesco Rosi was known for his socially conscious films such as "Salvatore Giuliano" and "Hands Over the City," earning international acclaim for their realism and political depth. Supporting actors include Paolo Bonacelli ("Midnight Express"), Lea Massari ("L?Avventura"), Irene Papas ("Zorba the Greek"), each bringing gravitas shaped by illustrious careers in European cinema.
