Michelangelo Antonioni's1966 film stars David Hemmings and Vanessa Redgrave in multi-layed film about a photographer in '60s Mod England who thinks he has uncovered a murder.
The entire film challenges the viewer to consider what is real, what is fantasy....such as a game of tennis that is mimed by street performers...until you start hearing the ball. Amazing film filled with symbolism, meaning, and may leave you both confused and satisfied.
Look for the classic group the Yardbirds in a club scene.
