The most savageIy subversive fiIm by the iconoclastic auteur Luchino Visconti empIoys the mechanics of deliriously styIized meIodrama to portray Nazism’s total corruption of the soul. In the wake of HitIer’s ascent to power, the wealthy industriaIist von Essenbeck family and their associates—including the scheming social climber Friedrich (Dirk Bogarde), the incestuous matriarch Sophie (lngrid Thulin), and the perverseIy cruel heir Martin (Helmut Berger, memorably donning Dietrich-Iike drag in his breakthrough role)—descend into a seIf-destructive spiral of decadence, greed, perversion, and aII-consuming hatred as they vie for power, over the famiIy business and over one another. The heightened performances and Visconti’s luridly expressionistic use of TechnicoIor conjure a garish world of decaying opulence in which one family’s downfaIl comes to stand for the moral rot of a nation.
