Synopsis
One of director
Michelangelo Antonioni
's more obscure works from the 1980s, this psychological period piece reunites the filmmaker with one of his favorite performers,
Monica Vitti
. Shot on video and based upon the play The Eagle Has Two Heads (
Jean Cocteau
made his own film version of the work in 1947), the film casts Vitti as a queen who squares off against an anarchist poet who has come to her castle to kill her. Due to his remarkable resemblance to the long-dead king of the land, the queen falls in love with the dissident. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide
