content

In 1970 the Italian master director Visconti is looking for the youthful leading actor Tadzio for his filming Death in Venice of the novel by Thomas Mann of the same name . After many scenes with school classes, including in wintery snow-covered Poland, he found the Swedish actor Björn Andrésen and immediately made test shots of him.

Rating

A very amazing, honest, relentless film. The writer Gilbert Adair writes: “The popularity of Death in Venice can basically only be explained by the fact that Visconti found a young man of such gorgeous beauty for the role of Tadzio that the audience, including the Mann readers, got the impression Here justice has been done to a model that has generally been attested to be uniqueness.
