Original title I sequestrati di Altona Year Running time min. Need to watch again but this is potentially one of De Sica's strongest films and the sequence of a recluse nazi schizophrenic walking into a Brecht performance was really something. Also pretty wild to see the low view count on this considering the cast and director but I had never heard of it before.

Every family has a skeleton in the closet and the one in this story has a raving Nazi. A rich, dying German industrialist Fredric March , who built his empire by collaborating with the Nazis during the war, summons his son Robert Wagner to his estate to discuss passing on the business empire. The son's bourgeoise actress wife Sophia Loren , an anti-Nazi, is horrified to discover the origin of the empire and is even more stunned to discover in the attic the crazed older son Maximillian Schell who has been in hiding since and who thinks the war is still raging and Germany is in ruins.

Da un dramma di Sartre, De Sica come regista si dimostra lontano dalle corde teatrali del filosofo esistenzialista francese, e Sophia Loren altrettanto spaesata, alla fine spicca il perfetto aplomb di Fredric March e poco altro.

Secluded and Deluded. Or maybe it was Jean-Paul Sartre's view of the world. Whatever it was his ideas just did not translate well to the big screen.

Germany may have lost the war, but her natural resources and the need for an anti-Communist bulwark in the Cold War have made her richer than ever, if de-Nazified. March has been told he's terminally ill and has six months tops. He's troubled about his choices. The younger son Robert Wagner is not fit material for a tycoon and in the patriarchal society Francoise Prevost is out of the question. Then there's Maximilian Schell who has self secluded and deluded.

He's a wanted war criminal from World War II and he's imposed an exile on himself. He believes because he knows no better that Germany is a vast rubble. Bringing him out of his exile is Wagner's new wife Sophia Loren who's been wondering about that locked section of that Gothic manor the Gerlachs have for themselves. As for the rest all I can say is Schell's guilt is the engine that drives the rest of the film. The best part of the film is something that could not be done on stage.
