Michelangelo Antonioni – The Poet of Alienation

In the quiet landscapes of postwar Italy, Michelangelo Antonioni discovered stories in silences and empty spaces. His films like L’Avventura, La Notte, and Blow-Up do not rush to explain but invite us to feel the disconnection of modern life. He turned alienation into an aesthetic, using architecture, framing, and the absence of action to reveal characters adrift in a changing world. Antonioni showed that cinema could capture not just stories but moods, uncertainties, and the subtle dissonances of existence.
