b'For many New York moviegoers, the past few weeks at the Film Society of Lincoln Center have virtually belonged to Luchino Visconti. The retrospective has included established landmarks such as\\xa0Rocco and His Brothers,\\xa0The Leopard,\\xa0Death in Venice, and\\xa0Ossessione, but it\\u2019s also fostered rediscovery of\\xa0Ludwig,\\xa0The Stranger,\\xa0The Damned, and more. The record audiences suggest that Visconti\\u2019s richly drawn canvases, larger-than-life characers, and sweeping historical dramas still have a special pull on the big screen. And decay never looked so good. In this episode of the podcast, I talked about Visconti\\u2019s work (and its resonance with glam rock?) with regular\\xa0FC\\xa0contributor Nick Pinkerton, and Florence Almozini, associate director of programming at the Film Society and co-programmer of the retrospective.'
