Additional Information
Bernardo Bertolucci's vast historical melodrama used the massive popular, critical, and financial success of its predecessor, the scandalous LAST TANGO IN PARIS, to mount a production of epic scale. The film utilises an all-star Hollywood cast to tell its heavily Marxist tale of Italian peasants during the twentieth century. Two boys born on the same day are destined for divergent paths; Olmo (played by Gerard Depardeiu) is born to peasant parents and will become a passionate socialist, while Alfredo's (Robert De Niro) bourgeois, landowning origins will lead him to ultimately embrace fascism. Driven by a sincere hope for and belief in political change, Bertolucci's film is nonetheless made up of very humane individual stories; it concentrates on highly personal experiences of a politically-charged time, which colour the little dramas of love, sex, family, and community. It is at once an epic poem and a political manifesto, and it is the product of a director who was unabashedly communist in his youth. The fact that 1900 managed to get released by a major American studio during the height of the Cold War is remarkable in itself. The final sequence, which portrays the Italian peasants overthrowing their fascist masters and dancing beneath the red flag of Communism, sparked controversy on all sides, with the left criticising it for historical inaccuracy, and the right obviously inflamed by the glorification of Communism. Bertolucci himself called it a dream sequence, an anticipation of the revolution yet to come, and indeed the entire movie is something of a celebration of the human spirit and the will to overcome.

Powerful social drama tracing changes in rural Italy during the first half of the twentieth century.
A beautifully filmed story based around the friendship between two youths from very different social backgrounds, growing up in a near-feudal country estate in a picturesque part of Italy. It traces social and political changes in Italy in the first half of the twentieth century. Some would say that the film is too long and is slow-moving; however, bear in mind that this is not a Hollywood action film, but a European ‘ art movie’ by Bernardo Bertolucci, an auteur director who produced some of his most interesting work during that period of the’60s and ‘70s when directors were given more of a free-hand to explore their own ideas.

Should have been a TV mini-series not Cinema release
Bleak, but interesting insight from Bertolucci. Great to see De Niro and Sutherland and Depardieu. Masterful from Sterling Hayden and Burt Lancaster. Ennio Morricone always has something to listen to. Understood why it failed at box office but interesting anyway.

This film is a classic.
Because it lasts for over 5 hours this film is a bit off putting for some. However, for enthusiastic lovers of epic movies with excellent actors, this relatively unknown film is a gem.
