A delicate Chekhovian tale of aging and memory is given a reading in the blustery Italian style, with the emphasis on pungent details like the stream of urine that emanates from a heart-attack victim and the splatter of blood across the windshield when the car speeding for medical help runs over a chicken. With Erland Josephson, Mariangela Melato, and Eleanora Giorgio; directed by Franco Brusati. (1979) — Duncan Shepherd
