      Critics Consensus

      Lavish and wistful, The Leopard features epic battles, sumptuous costumes, and a ballroom waltz that competes for most beautiful sequence committed to film. Read critic reviews

      Movie Info

      As Garibaldi's troops begin the unification of Italy in the 1860s, an aristocratic Sicilian family grudgingly adapts to the sweeping social changes undermining their way of life. Proud but pragmatic Prince Don Fabrizio Salina (Burt Lancaster) allows his war hero nephew, Tancredi (Alain Delon), to marry Angelica (Claudia Cardinale), the beautiful daughter of gauche, bourgeois Don Calogero, in order to maintain the family's accustomed level of comfort and political clout.

      Audience Reviews for The Leopard

      • Jan 18, 2021
        A lesser movie would have Corbera become a tragic figure simply because an ever changing world no longer finds him or his generation relevant but instead he's granted a kind of clarity about the harsh realities of revolutions (i.e. if society changes too quickly, it will simply stay the same or get worse) that isn't afforded to the other characters. This has the effect of robbing the dying nobility, their brash, young replacements, and the revolutionaries of any sympathy which is an impressive feat on Visconti's part.

        The costumes and locations are beyond exceptional. Add a fantastic cast headed by the ever-restrained Burt Lancaster and you've got a spectacular film.

        Lancaster's unlikely appearance in this Italian film is memorable across the film's epic length.

        Visconti remembers the good ole days (ala Gone With The Wind) of an stately affected upper class ruling the dirty lower classes with humble grace and dignity (only this story's set in Sicily, though at about at nearly the same time), and their fading demise ... whatever (I got no sympathy at all for sad rich folks mooning over the good ol'days, sorry). Sumptuously filmed and orchestrated, with loads of loving details and drenched in melancholy (like GWTW), its about the changing of the guard, and maybe that is sad. The cast is worthy if the subject isn't.
