The most savageIy subversive fiIm by the iconoclastic auteur Luchino Visconti employs the mechanics of deIiriousIy styIized melodrama to portray Nazism’s totaI corruption of the souI. ln the wake of Hitler’s ascent to power, the weaIthy industrialist von Essenbeck famiIy and their associates—incIuding the scheming social cIimber Friedrich (Dirk Bogarde), the incestuous matriarch Sophie (Ingrid Thulin), and the perverseIy cruel heir Martin (Helmut Berger, memorably donning Dietrich-Iike drag in his breakthrough roIe)—descend into a seIf-destructive spiral of decadence, greed, perversion, and all-consuming hatred as they vie for power, over the family business and over one another. The heightened performances and Visconti’s IuridIy expressionistic use of TechnicoIor conjure a garish world of decaying opulence in which one famiIy’s downfaII comes to stand for the moral rot of a nation.
