Antonioni–at 89!–to direct again

Legendary Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni (Blow Up, Beyond the Clouds) will return to the film set for the first time in six years to direct a segment of a three-part feature titled Eros, according to the Italian daily La Repubblica.

The 89-year-old director will join Won Kar-wai (Fallen Angels) and Pedro Almodóvar (All About My Mother), who are attached to direct the other two segments. Antonioni‘s wife Erica told the newspaper: “It will be a small film with high erotic tension, to be made with little money, unknown actors and no complications. Exactly what Michelangelo needed. … He will finally be able to happily cast aside his anxieties about going back to making a film.”
