BLOW UP Director: Michelangelo Antonioni 110 minutes| UK| 1967| Colour| 35mm Book cinema tickets Italian maestro Michelangelo Antonioni made the subject of alienation a fashionable theme in European art cinema of the 1960s. In Blow Up, David Hemmings plays a fashion photographer in ‘Swinging London’ of the mid-’60s who discovers that he may have unwittingly photographed a murder in a park. His efforts to discover the truth by manipulating the images he captured a tour de force sequence that sums up the entire film only leads to further uncertainties. Insecurity and alienation have now reached such a pitch of intensity that the Antonioni protagonist has come to doubt even the validity of his own perceptions.
