International Classics: Blow-Up

Hosted and curated by Fred Craden

Winner of the Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival, Italian filmmaker Michelangelo Antonioni’s first English-language feature was an international sensation. A countercultural masterpiece about the act of seeing and the art of image making, Blow-Up takes the form of a psychological mystery, starring David Hemmings as a fashion photographer who unknowingly captures a death on film after following two lovers in a park. With outstanding performances, an intoxicating color palette, and jazzy Herbie Hancock soundtrack, this brilliant film cemented Antonioni as one of cinema’s greatest artists.
