Antonioni continued his study in modern alienation with this story of an Italian novelist and his wife who seemed completely cutoff from their society and ultimately each other.
As always with an Antonioni film it's all about the images with cinematographer Gianni Di Venanzo providing some stunning black and white photography and composition.
A dark serious film but very worthwhile. The performances from Marcello Mastroianni and Jeannie Moreau are very good. incidentally La Notte translates into English as "The Night."
