Ventnor Film Society presents The Leopard (certificate PG, 188 mins) at The Ventnor Winter Gardens on Tuesday 21 February 2006 at 7.30pm.
No apologies are needed for introducing this classic film into the season. The Leopard must surely rate as one of the most sumptuously beautiful films ever made. Based on di Lampedusa’s novel, this sweeping narrative follows the decline of an aristocratic Sicilian clan during Garibaldi’s rise to power. Gorgeous cinematography, oppulent design and stunning set pieces.
