Criterion presents 'La Notte' in their standard clear keepcase with spine number 678. The BD-50 Region A disc comes packaged with a booklet featuring an essay by critic Richard Brody and an article by director Michelangelo Antonioni.Criterion have put together a nice package for their release of La Notte. The disc kicks off with an interview with a pair of film critics Adriano Apra and Carlo di Carlo. They discuss La Notte at length, from the structure to symbolism and more.
