Blow-Up (1966)

Antonioni is famous for something that I can't see. This is a somewhat beautiful amble through moddish 1960s London with little plot and no characters worth speaking of. All I learnt was that the bra either hadn't been invented by then or had been burnt quietly, off-stage, with no liberation of the females.
