Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Morte a Venezia is a film by Luchino Visconti made in 1971. Its translated title is Death in Venice. It is an adaptation of a novella by Thomas Mann of the same name written in 1912.It is set in pre-WWI Venice. Main character Gustav von Aschenbach, a middle-aged intellectual (played by Dirk Bogarde), arrives in Venice. There he stays in the hotel where he notices a big Polish family. He falls in love with a teenage boy, Tadzio. Much longing ensues as the main character observes the boy.Then an epidemic breaks out in Venice. The protagonist wants to leave but then changes his mind. He goes on following the boy around the city from some distance. Meanwhile Venice decays as the disease takes its toll. Cholera in this movie might be a metaphor for the looming WWI.A documentary chronicling on actor Bjorn Andrésen's time playing Tadzio and the aftermath, The World's Most Beautiful Boy, was released in 2021.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

| Morte a Venezia / int_23568a2a | comment |
Adaptational Job Change: Aschenbach is changed from a writer in the novel (being an Author Avatar for Thomas Mann) to a composer in the film (being loosely modeled on Gustav Mahler, whose music appears on the soundtrack).note Specifically, the fourth movements from each of his Symphonies Nos.3-5 (though that of No.4 only appears briefly in a piano reduction as played by Alfried). Like his fictional counterpart (and unlike Thomas Mann), Mahler actually did die of a heart ailment a few years before World War I, although in a sanatorium in Vienna rather than on the beach in Venice. | |

Author Filibuster: Gustav von Aschenbach and his friend Alfried discuss at length aesthetical questions in the scene closer to the beginning of the film.note Mark Burns, who played Alfried, later admitted that he had no idea what his character's speeches meant. | |
