...return from the war. The dead king's son, Orestes, goaded to revenge by his sister Electra, proceeds to murder his mother and Aegisthus. Rabe has drastically minimized Electra's role, but he provides two Clytemnestras, possibly to differentiate the mother's grief from the lust and vengefulness of the mistress (Rae Allen...
...element of Catholic puritanism that had been bred in him as a child. Even as late as 1948, in A Rage to Live, O'Hara struck a rather stern tone.

As a truly radical film, Last Tango in Paris is so far from the popular mind that it can have only subtle, nearly unconscious cultural influence, but it will influence other film makers, and Bertolucci, still a very young man, will make more...
