Description

Luchino Viscontis *The Damned* (1969) is a gripping and visually stunning war drama that explores the dark undercurrents of power, corruption, and decadence within Nazi-era Germany. The film follows the powerful von Essenbeck family, whose munitions empire becomes entangled with the Nazi Party, leading to treachery, betrayal, and destruction. As family members vie for control, shifting alliances and ruthless ambition drive them towards their inevitable downfall. Featuring a stellar cast, including Dirk Bogarde, Helmut Berger, Ingrid Thulin, and Charlotte Rampling, this Criterion Collection release presents *The Damned* in a restored edition that enhances its haunting cinematography and operatic intensity.
