    Quite honestly one of the most boring and pointless films you will ever see. You will hate ever minute of it's pointless meandering plot. This is a movie that critics and film academics have to enjoy to be allowed to attend each other's wine parties.

    Thirty-five years since its debut, The Conformist is still a stunning, challenging, transporting film.

    One of the great Bertolucci's most acclaimed films...Trintignant gives a legendary performance.

    The Conformist has a decadent visual beauty about it that's breathtaking. But as striking as Bertolucci's classic looks, there's even more powerful stuff in the storytelling.
