Synopsis: Michelangelo Antonioni delivers yet another masterful cinematic expose with BLOW UP, a provocative mystery set in the seamy mod culture of London. The film follows a photographer (David Hemmings)... [More]
Starring: Vanessa Redgrave, David Hemmings, Sarah Miles, Jill Kennington
Director: Michelangelo Antonioni
O rigor estético aqui exibido por Antonioni, somado à excepcional montagem de Frank Clarke, à bela fotografia de Carlo Di Palma e à atuação inspirada de Hemming, garante ao filme um vigor e um charme que só crescem com o tempo.
This is so ravishing to look at (the colors all seem newly minted) and pleasurable to follow (the enigmas are usually more teasing than worrying) that you're likely to excuse the metaphysical pretensions.
Top CriticThere may be some meaning, some commentary about life being a game, beyond what remains locked in the mind of film's creator, Italian director-writer Michelangelo Antonioni. But it is doubtful that the general public will get the 'message' of this film.
Top CriticStill thought provoking, fascinating film making.
Inventive, richly styled film
Pop-culture icon that has become a cult classic.
As often with Antonioni, a film riddled with moments of brilliance and scuppered by infuriating pretensions.
The natural world is arrayed against the artificial scene; conscience is deployed against convention. If you’ve never seen Blow-Up, see it now, if only to see what part of the world was like 40 years ago.
Top CriticWhether there was a murder isn't the point. The film is about a character mired in ennui and distaste, who is roused by his photographs into something approaching passion.

A fascinating take on the mod lifestyle.
Speaks to the inescapability of modern man’s emotional and spiritual alienation.

Peter Brunette’s detailed and entertaining commentary refreshingly acknowledges that, at many points, 'Things don’t add up in this movie.'
The ennui stretches into the very story itself.
Antonioni’s chic study in ambiguity calls into question the notion of photographic truth, and indeed reality itself.
Relying only on our subjective perceptions and personal interpretations, we are asked to find the truth for ourselves.
