Luchino Visconti di Modrone, Count of Lonate Pozzolo ( 2 November 1906 – 17 March 1976) was an Italian filmmaker, stage director, and screenwriter.

Not quite a making-of about Visconti's Death in Venice, as it spends quite a bit of time showing the director looking at hundreds of young boys to find the perfect one. Although the narrator gives us Mann's description, we're never told quite what Visconti is looking for. It has that boring-home-video feel throughout in addition to the creepiness of searching for a beautiful boy.

Sendo um curta de Visconti é uma pena que não houve uma restauração apropriada para ele. Tadzio é a Lolita queer, só que inalcançável. Blu-ray Versátil Visconti Essencial.
