The “Conformist”, is, as I remembered, brilliant. I’m no farther along on deciding if “The Dreamers” is a very good movie that goes off the rails or is a mediocre movie that plays above its skill level. I might revisit the question in light of this post from Filmbrain about a movie Bertolucci made in ’68, “Partner”, coving the same events.

Filmbrain includes a clip from the film that is certainly outstanding, but also shows more than a little of what is weird about Bertolucci.
