About Eclipse Series 14:Rossellini's Histor
In the final phase of his career, Italian master Roberto Rossellini embarked on a dramatic, daunting project: a series of politically minded television films about knowledge and history, made in an effort to teach, where the contemporary media was failing. Rossellini was determined not to recount history but to bring it back to life, as it might have been, unadorned yet full of the drama of the everyday. In this selection of Rossellini's history films, Eclipse presents Blaise Pascal, the three-part The Age of the Medici and Cartesius - works that don't just enliven the past but illuminate the ideas that brought us to where we are. In French and Italian with English subtitles. The Criterion Collection.
