Do you know that "The leopard" is not a good translation for "Il Gattopardo"? A leopard is bigger than a gattopardo and it is the equivalent of the italian "leopardo". "Gattopardo" can be translated "ocelot" or "serval".

@oubriz then thank God I didn't read the book, i don't want to be depressed more than I am >_<

[oubriz]

@mercore Yeah he was. Well there are some things not shown in the movie. There are more chapters in the book after the last scene of the movie. You also get to see Fabritsio's death and what happens to the family after..

@oubriz do you mean Tancredi (Alain Delon) was actually in love with his cousin Concetta in the book? strange they didn't show it in the movie..

Could someone put up a subtitled version for English-speaking film lovers?

The glorious Claudia Cardinale! We lose ourselves around such beautiful women. 

[oubriz]

@virtuouscircle i think that in the book she finally realises/learns that Tangredi was actually in love with her all the way long so that is kind of a relief. Yet i feel exactly as you do too..

É incrível o poder da beleza. Todos se aquietam e se comovem diante daquilo que Bilac chamou de "O triunfo imortal da carne".

Magnifico esse filme do maestro Visconti, mas nesta cena creio que o que mais chama a a tenção é a presença carnal de Claudia Cardinale a estontear todos os homens presentes com sua encantadora beleza mediterrânea.

Percebam como Tancredi larga a mão da prima quando a bela burguesa adentra o recinto...a beleza é cruel ... com quem não a possui.

uno dei piú belli fiim della storia del Cinema Italiano!un capolavoro che solamente fu possibile grazie al genio dI Luchino Visconti!!!!!!!!!

[TheNick1951]

Uma obra prima de Luchino Visconti. Uma das raras vezes em que o filme não desmerece o livro que o originou.

My heart always bleeds for poor doomed Concetta... what fabulous acting! Thanks for posting this!
