The British Film Institute has provided complete details and new street date for its upcoming 4K Blu-ray release of Luchino Visconti's Rocco and His Brothers (1960), starring Alain Delon, Renato Salvatori, Annie Girardot, Katina Paxinou, and Alessandra Panaro. The release is now scheduled to arrive on the market on July 13.
Starring the great Alain Delon (The Samurai, The Leopard) in one of his most iconic roles, Luchino Visconti's Rocco and His Brothers is considered among the last works of Italian neorealism and bridges the gap wonderfully between the old and the new in both storytelling and artistry. Now restored in 4K, it comes to UHD (with the special features on a Blu-ray disc), released by the BFI on 22 June, with extras including a new audio commentary by film historian Adrian Martin. The Italian maestro's epic drama follows a mother and her five sons who move to Milan from a small town in southern Italy, changing their lives forever. This hypnotically beautiful tale of migration, loss and sacrifice became a huge influence on the work of Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese.
