The feeling of Disenchantmentover anhistorical period as the Risorgimento is experienced and interpreted by the two directors Visconti and Martone in a different way. Martone in his Noi credevamo express a Rossellini legacy, everything in his way of working search the truth, whereas, Visconti in his Senso and Il Gattopardo products, practices one of his multiple way trough a radical realism, in the wake of the ‘aesthetics of the Risorgimento. With Noi credevamo, Martone expresses a tribute to the Republican Risorgimento that participates in the complaint of an age, seeking satisfaction. Visconti in his movies expresses instead an already disenchanted analysis, even if, it is surely only feigning indifference towards the Renaissance. So the result for a Risorgimento wiew, host Visconti as a self made director that uses one of the ways to express the ‘art, while Martone, is still on effort to understand the Risorgimento as a period itself. The disenchantment is, in any case, the feeling confirmed to the vision of both.
