Lo Straniero (1967 Luchino Visconti)

Perfect version of famous Camus novel, written by Visconti, Georges Conchon and Suso Cecci D'Amico. Marcello Mastroianni just right as existential hero Mersault. Anna Karina his girlfriend, George GĂ©ret as pimp friend, Bernard Blier defense.

Directed with much use of zoom, photographed by Giueseppe Rotunno. Good music by Piero Piccioni.




Looks like it is finally available on DVD in Italy - almost certainly not subtitled though.
