Before the Revolution
Films that shaped it

There are so many great movies, but... there’s a director named Bernardo Bertolucci and I love his movies, and I loved Before the Revolution, and I guess that’s the one, maybe. And it’s not really a movie about journalism, but I just watched it and thought, 'This is where this movie came from.'

Luca Guadagnino has cited Pier Paolo Pasolini's Teorema, a 1968 Italian film in which a mysterious stranger arrives and seduces every member of a bourgeois family, as the direct narrative model for what happens between Elio and Oliver that summer. Wong Kar-wai's influence is everywhere in the texture: desire as something felt in light and fabric before it's understood as feeling. Teorema is on MUBI and will change how you read the film.
