Michelangelo Antonioni

He graduated in economics at Bologna University, he reached Rome in 1940 where he attended specifical studies at Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Cinecitta[?]. Here he met some of the artists with whom he will cooperate in the next years; among them Roberto Rossellini.

He described himself as a Marxist intellectual, but some authors advance some doubts about his effective adherence to that ideology.
