Director Joe Wright, known for his visual extravagance, presents 'M. Son of the Century', a daring examination of Mussolini's rise to power, emphasizing critical engagement with history.
Wright describes the series as a 'you-are-there immediacy crossed with flights of formal daring that flirt with abstraction,' inviting viewers to reflect critically on fascism.
'We want to ask the audience to apply some critical distance and consider their own response to Mussolini and how they became seduced,' says Wright.
Even with limited Italian language skills, Wright appreciates the expressiveness of Italian actors, which aids in conveying emotion and narrative understanding.
