5 out of 5 stars Excellent movie,poor DVD   October 17, 2007
"Conversation Piece" is one of my favourites among the very best of the world cinema.For me it's much better than usually higher regarded "Innocent" made at the end of Visconti's career.It is a very moody film about culture,it's decline,solitude,old age and cultural gap between different generations.The price of the DVD is realy acceptable,but except the movie itself and the scene access there is nothing more in it.Even the subtitles are absent.Recommended anyway.

A very good film. An ageing college professor opts for a quiet life in a solitary Roman palazzo, but becomes involved in murder and intrigue as the room upstairs is rented by a vulgar Italian family. His cosy, ordered life is completely turned upside down by their antisocial lifestyle. It's an unusual role for the Hollywood heavyweight but he does well, more than holding his own against some genuinely unpleasant characters and giving depth to this art house outing. Well worth a watch.
