----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Antonioni's final completed feature was _Identificazione di una donna_ (Identification of a Woman) in 1982. The distributor went bankrupt and the film was never released widely (not at all in North America), Antonioni tried unsuccessfully to get the rights back himself. Seymor Chatman's _Antonioni or the Surface of the World_ has a plot summary. His next film was to be called _The Crew_ shot entirely on a ship at sea off of the English coast. It never got made because Antonioni, due to health concerns, is not insurable as a director. I heard he had a debilitating stroke a few years ago. Does anybody on the list have an update on the old master's health? It saddens me to see the erasure of a gifted film artist by the workings of the film business and ever changing fashions.
