Il gattopardo, directed by Luchino Visconti. Italy, 1963, 186 min.

This is the definitive work on the decline of the aristocratic tradition and the rise of the social-climbing bourgeoisie as Italy moves towards its unification. Taking his cue from Tomasi di Lampedusa's novel, Visconti produces a sumptuous masterpiece, a funeral symphony at once disturbing and seductive, whose meticulous historical accuracy is still breathtaking to this day.
