Marco Bellocchio is one of Italy's most important and prolific
directors, with a career spanning five decades. In this book,
Clodagh J. Brook explores the boundaries between the public and the
private, the political and the personal, and the collective and the
individual as they appear in Bellocchio's films. Including work on
psychoanalysis, politics, film production, autobiography, and the
relationship between film tradition and contemporary culture, Marco
Bellocchio touches on fundamental issues in film analysis.
Brook's study interrogates what it means to make personal or
anti-institutional art in a medium dominated by a late-capitalist
industrial model of production. Her readings of Bellocchio's often
enigmatic and perplexing work suggest new ways to answer questions
about subjectivity, objectivity, and political commentary in modes
of filmmaking. Relating the art of a private director to a public
medium, Clodagh J. Brook's work is an important contribution to our
understanding of film.
