DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Luchino Visconti Italy

Visconti's films like 'Death in Venice' and 'The Leopard' capture the decadence and social transformation of Italian coastal and resort settings with operatic grandeur.

 Federico Fellini Italy

Fellini's 'Amarcord' and 'La Dolce Vita' explore the bittersweet atmosphere of Italian resort culture, seaside leisure, and the clash between tradition and modernity.

 Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

Antonioni's 'L'Avventura' and 'La Notte' use Italian resort towns and Mediterranean landscapes to examine alienation and emotional disconnection in modern leisure society.
