L’avventura is a 1960 film by director Michelangelo Antonioni.Two friends, Anna and Claudia (played by Monica Vitti), meet with Anna's boyfriend Sandro and go with other friends on a trip to a rocky island. While they are there, Anna disappears without a trace. The others start looking for her, but with exception of Claudia and Sandro, they show no particular interest in the result of the searches...If you saw any other movie, its plot would deal with Anna's disappearance and the effects it had on the characters. If that's what you're looking for, don't even bother with this movie.Halfway through the movie, Anna is completely forgotten by everyone, including her friend and her boyfriend, and is only mentioned once in a while, in case you don't remember how the film began. The movie deals mainly with Sandro and Claudia's relationship (avventura, beside an adventure, means a fling in English.)So... The movie has almost no plot. Yeah. That means it's not for everyone. The movie replaces plot with the beautiful sceneries, interesting Character Development and of course, playing with the viewers' expectations.As an aside note, the movie had one noticeable instance of Vindicated by History: When it was released, the public found it so slow and boring that they booed it in Cannes. It was after a second screening, and a bunch of essays written by critics defending the movie, when they started to admire it more.L'avventura is the first installment in Antonioni's trilogy of alienation that includes La notte (The Night, 1961) and L'eclisse (The Eclipse, 1962), all made in B&W. Sometimes Il deserto rosso (The Red Desert, 1964) is included in this unofficial series making it a tetralogy, despite being in color and not having a One-Word Title. These films are made in a similar manner characteristic of the "slow cinema". They research the condition of the contemporary middle-class educated Europeans, though L'avventura in particular concentrates on the upper-middle class. Monica Vitti stars in all of them, playing main characters in three films and a tritagonist in La notte.About Elly by Asghar Farhadi was clearly influenced by this film while not qualifying for a remake.

Title Drop: Sandro to Claudia when she reproaches him that he now seems to be an entirely different person than before to her. He answers that it is for the better because that makes for a new adventure.

Reveal Shot: In Noto, Claudia is shown in the close shot on the street under the stairs. A cut to the wider shot reveals that half a dozen men are watching her both on the same level and from the stairs. Then a further pan reveals that a whole crowd is observing her. A dialogue reveals that she is taken for French.

Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: Most characters are firmly on the cynical end of the scale. Zigzagged with Claudia who also sees this trend towards the cynical in herself and is very much ashamed of that. She tries to improve her ways with mixed results.

Only One Name: Every character has only a name in the credits; no surnames are mentioned with the exception of Anna's father, who is only referred to as such. Subverted in the sole case of Gloria Perkins, an aspiring actress who arrived from the USA. That proves to be a bad sign as she seduces Sandro.

When the student comes up to him, Sandro asks his age and when the student replies "23" Sandro says that at that age he fought so many times the student would not even think about it. The scene ends peacefully.

Grey-and-Gray Morality: Claudia appears to be the most sympathetic character. However, at one point she confesses that while previously she wanted to find Anna, and was horrified that she would not be found, now she is horrified that Anna would be found. Other characters are visibly more cynical. Some of them even suppose that Sandro might have knocked off Anna.

comment
Deadpan Snarker: Almost every secondary character in the movie, Claudia is not, curiously Sandro is also not the best example of that. Sandro might be evil at times but he doesn't often make snarky remarks. Patrizia and Raimondo as well as Corrado are frequently this. Also a drugstore assistant and his wife. Corrado talking about Giulia even quotes Oscar Wilde, one of the most acclaimed deadpan snarkers.

Dull Surprise: Raimondo is unconcerned when he drops the ancient vase so that it breaks. When Raimondo touches Patrizia's breast, she only asks coldly whether he is disappointed with what he feels there. Claudia reacts apathetically when Giulia and Goffredo passionately make out in front of her.

Big "NO!": Claudia sings 'NO, no, non ti lascero' (meaning "No, no, I won't leave you") to Sandro making a stress on the first NO. She indeed doesn't leave him in the end when he betrays her with a girl of easy virtue.

Non-Idle Rich
 L'Avventura / int_c76f81b8
comment
Non-Idle Rich: An interesting subversion of the widespread stereotype of the film. While on the trip many characters might appear bored and stricken by the upper-class ennui in regular life some of them actually work. Sandro might have sold out and given up his high artistic dreams but his boss recognizes that he cannot do without his calculations. His work makes him rich, he confesses to own several apartments but it resulted from work, catering to the preferences of the tasteless bourgeois. Which pays. Corrado is implied to be an official who is present at various conferences where he is unable to give up snarking. Goffredo doesn't have much time to idle around because he produces numerous nude paintings. In the case of Patrizia it is her husband, Ettore, who earns the money. He is the chief of Sandro the architect.

Broken Bird: Anna in the beginning of the film to an extent. She refuses to discuss with her father that Sandro is not going to marry her. Subverted by Claudia in the end when she learns of Sandro's infidelity. While he breaks into tears she has the strength to forgive him. Also subverted by Giulia responding to the constant attempts of her husband to put her down with adultery.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"
 L'Avventura / int_d7b34c31
comment
Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Old Man on the Island is credited in this way. Might be due to Values Dissonance because in a movie dedicated to upper-class characters, a poor islander couldn't receive a name.

Red Herring: The police interrogation of the smugglers does not lead anywhere. They quite probably indeed smuggle the goods into Italy on their boats but have nothing to do with Anna's disappearance. Sandro meets several people who tell him about a girl who might be the missing Anna. Later all this is dropped..

Decoy Protagonist: Played with. In the runtime preceding Anna's disappearance, both Anna and Claudia receive a fair share of the screen time. Anna still is the main character of that part and the interest in her drama is reinforced in her final scene with Sandro before she goes missing.

Determinator Sandro in his relation to Claudia until he conquers her. Much less afterwards. He also averts the trope in his relationship with Anna, which has been going on for a while at the beginning of the film.

 L'Avventura / int_f36c4f98
comment
Easily Forgiven: Played with. While Claudia makes the forgiving gesture in the very ending very soon after she sees him making out with Gloria Perkins, it is implied that Sandro is visibly shocked after she discovers his infidelity. A debatable case as in description it appears that Sandro is easily forgiven but it does not read like that in the movie.
