The film at the Clark this Friday (10/23) at 4:00 pm is Vittorio De Sica's Umberto D. (1952, 89 min.) Again They Shoot Pictures, Don't They? aggregates useful background on the director, and the Criterion Collection includes two essays on the film with its dvd (here and here). I find that the Turner Classic Movies site frequently has good background in its reviews (here).
Remember that the film club will be deciding collectively which Visconti film to watch next. (Scroll down to be reminded of the choices.) And we will be open to suggestions on what to view after that, though Fellini's La Strada might be the default choice.
