Here's a movie about a couple on vacation that made me feel like I was with them, learning about places, cultures, and people. The husband and wife clash when together, then obsess about one another when apart. This implies that a deep marriage is an ironic catch 22, often mercilessly taxing, without ever being completely hopeless...just like life itself.

She remembers a poet who loved her and died in the war; although she didn't love him, the memory underscores romance's absence from her life now. She tours the museums of Naples and Pompeii, immersing herself in the Neapolitan fascination with the dead and noticing how many women are pregnant; he idles on Capri, flirting with women but drawing back from adultery.

"8.2. 2024 "Journey to Italy" isn't one of Rossellini's most complicated films, but it is probably the most beautiful film he ever made. The story focuses on an unhappy English couple who travels to Italy. The man and the woman are both treating their marriage like a business, and this is why it feels cold and dead. The main characters are separated at certain point and they end up walking their own ways. The man meets an attractive Italian woman, but doesn't feel anything for her. The woman go"

"23.1 Rossellini/Italia Englantilainen Ingrid Bergman haahuilee Napolissa ja järkyttyy milloin mistäkin. Räiskyvä italialainen elämänvoima on pidättyvälle ulkolaiselle liikaa. Rossellini taitaa vittuilla hänen ja Ingridin skandaalisuhteesta järkyttyneille anglosakseille. "

My Movie Diary 2017 (217 movies items)

" 30 May. Couple George Sanders and Ingrid Bergman are a couple whose marriage is on the rocks, and a trip to countryside Italy isn't quite the therapy they needed, instead made things worse. As much as this Rossellini film is revered, even considered his masterpiece, the story offers little to enhance its characters, and relied too much on the location. "
